Pte. Arthur Charles Sullivan
British Army 8th Btn. East Surrey Regiment
from:Edmonton
(d.31st July 1918)
Arthur Charles Sullivan was my great uncle, my mother's uncle, and my grandmother's brother. I have been building a family tree and all that my mum knew was that her mother's brother had been killed in WWI.
After some research, I have discovered Arthur was born around 1898 in Walthamstow. The family lived in Edmonton. I am not sure if Arthur was drafted or volunteered. The military records I have so far found show that he was a private in the 8th Btn of the East Surrey Regiment. He was killed in action on 31st of July 1918. He would have been around 19 or 20 years old. He is listed as buried in the Ribemont Communal Cemetery, Somme.
