Pte. James Harper
British Army 1st Battalion Gordon Highlanders
from:Dalry, Ayrshire, Scotland
(d.19th September 1918)
James Harper was my 4th cousin 1x removed, I know only the bare facts about him. He is listed in Soldiers Died in the Great War, 1914-1919. He was born in Ayr in Scotland on 21 May 1890 and appears to have lived in Ayrshire up until his military service. He died in France or Flanders on 28th of September 1918, age 28, only weeks before the Armistice. I don't know any more details of his death or service. He left behind his parents, five brothers and two sisters.
