257601 RSM. Samuel Wain British Army 10th Btn. Sherwood Foresters from:Whaley Bridge (d.20th August 1918) Samuel Wain served with the 10th Battalion, Sherwood Foresters Regiment in WW1. He died 20th of August 1918 aged 25 years and is buried at Mont Huon Military Cemetery at Le Treport in France. Son of William H. and Elizabeth Wain of Dinsdale, Vicarage Lane, Bowden, Cheshire. Native of Whaley Bridge, Derbyshire. Unfortunately there is no story to be told as Samuel Wain died way before I was born and was never discussed. I only found out about him because I was doing my family tree. What I do know is that he died from being gassed. I found this site through searching about him but there is nothing I can find and it feels wrong, so at least he is being acknowledged being in the war there and sadly dying there too.
