Cpl. John Ambrose

British Army 1st Battalion Royal Scots Fusiliers

from:Glasgow

(d.27th March 1916)

John Ambrose is my grandfather. Unfortunately, I know very little about him. My grandmother immigrated from Scotland to Canada in 1921 with my dad and his 3 brothers. I have done a bit of research on his battalion and the events surrounding when he was killed in action on 27th of March 1916 but have found limited information. However, I was able to acquire the diaries of his battalion from 1914 to 1916 when he was killed.

My brother and I are traveling to Ypres in April 2018 to see his name on Menin Gate and go to the site of the battle where he died. It is important for us to do this and to make whatever connection we can to a grandfather we never knew but who is still loved and thought of, even after all these years.
