253336 Rfmn. Henry Charles Wilson British Army 8th (Post Office Rifles) Btn. London Regiment from:Lambeth, London (d.19th Oct 1918) Harry Wilson was my grandmother's brother. She told me that he had been killed by a sniper after the liberation of Lille, although he is buried at Auberchicourt which was a dressing station at the time, and some distance from Lille. My understanding is that Harry joined up early in the war and came home on leave twice. When he returned to the front the second time, he was convinced that he was going to die, and put his affairs in order. I suspect that by 1918 few people believed that they could continue to survive.
