Arthur John Truett
British Army 15th Btn. Durham Light Infantry
(d.29th May 1918)
I know little of Arthur Truett (he is listed in one source as John Arthur Truett, but in the baptismal register as Arthur John Truett), but discovered him while researching family history - he is a first cousin twice removed.
His parents were Thomas Charles and Rose Hannah Truett of Kibworth Leics. The family were originally from Felmersham, Beds. Arthur was only 19 at the time of his death (he was born on 9th June 1898), but I have no information about his enlistment or the circumstances of it.
