Cpl. Sidney Herbert "Chalky" White
British Army Royal Berkshire Regiment
from:Barking
My grandad Sidney White fought in the Battle of Ypres, was taken as a POW and survived the Great War. He was wounded and walked with a slight limp the rest of his life. He lived until the age of 69 and died in 1962. He came from Barking, East London and lived there all his life. He married Alice, a local girl who died a year after him. They had 3 sons, Herbert, Richard and John, who was my father.
