(d.20th Oct 1918)

Frank Turberfield is thought to have been killed during the Battle of Courtrai only three weeks before the Armistice. He was buried in the Stasegem Communal Cemetery in Belgium which would have been close to the place of his death.

There are only 23 British graves in the Stasegem cemetery, five are graves of members of the Worcestershire Regiment who died on the same day. (20th October 1918). All were aged 19 or 20. The grave which stands apart from the others is that of Lieutenant David McGregor VC of the Royal Scots. He was killed on 22nd of October 1918, aged 23.
