250389 Pte. Percy Rainbird British Army 9th Btn. Essex Regiment from:South Weald, Essex (d.12th Oct 1915) Percy Rainbird was my Mother's Uncle.I'm afraid I know very little of his past He came from a large family, which included a brother Tom who was in the Royal Navy as a regular in 1909. Another older brother, Frank, who was also in France at the time of Percy's death, served with the Australian 6th Infantry Battalion. Frank also died in the conflict on 2nd September 1918. The family came from the Brentwood area, and descendants still live in the area today. I have no knowledge of the circumstances or the whereabouts of Percy's death, nor where he may be commemorated.
