Pte. James Phipps

British Army 7th Battalion South Staffordshire

from:Aston, Birmingham

(d.27th Sep 1916)

I have only recently found out this information about my partner's great grandfather, James Phipps. The family story is that he was hit by the fall out from a shell which de-capitated him. This story was relayed by a returning soldier who knew James' family. His name appears on the Thiepval Monument

Additional Information:

This was my great grandfather, I have visited the Theipval Memorial and saw his name on a pier there, I would be grateful for any more information about James Phipps or any photograph that exists.
