Pte. William H. Lawrence
British Army Machine Gun Corps
Our Grandfather William Lawrence was admitted to King's College Hospital on the 9th of December 1917, then transferred to Oakenshaw Hospital in January 1918. He left the Oakenshaw Hospital on the 30th of April 1918 when he was returned to King's College Hospital, where
he was eventually discharged from on the 4th of June 1918.
We have no idea what our grandfather suffered from but we do have some photographs of his Oaksenshaw stay and photographs and details of another patient by the name of W.Tasker who was with the Household Battalion, Life Guards, at Buckingham Palace.
Our grandfather had a large family and sadly passed away in 1979.
