Pte. Ernest Cutting

British Army 11th Btn. Suffolk Regiment

from:Shipmeadow Beccles, Suffolk

(d.26th Apr 1917)

My Great Uncle Ernest Cutting was brother to my grandmother May Alexandra Wright [ nee Cutting]. He was aged only 20 years old when he died of wounds in France. He is buried at the Etaples Cemetery.

These boys were so brave I would have been terrified to have to do what they did. We must never forget them they sacrificed their lives so we could all be free.

I do not know much about Ernest other than what I have found on the internet as every one who would know him has now died. Ernest's brother Arthur Cutting also died during the war but I have not been able to find details of him.

Additional Information:

I have now found Ernest Cutting's brother Arthur Cutting. Arthur sadly died on the same day as his brother Ernest. Sadly this day 26th April next year in 2017 will be the 100th anniversary of their death. I feel so very sad. I hope no one ever forgets the men who fought to keep us free.
