Rifleman John Jackson Weldon

British Army 21st (Yeoman Rifles) Battalion Kings Royal Rifle Corps

from:Ellerby, Yorkshire

(d.15th Sep 1916)

Jack Weldon is believed to have died of his wounds on 15th of September 1916. He was an unmarried farmer from Ellerby, Yorkshire. Upon his death his father got his effects. The family had been farming in the area for hundreds of years and the only other child, a son, Henry Lazenby Weldon, also served in the Great War.

We are distant relations from NZ and found out about John Weldon on Ancestry. It seemed appropriate to see that his sacrifices were acknowledged.
