Sgt. Frank Smith

British Army 61st Battalion Machine Gun Corps

from:Chelsea, London

(d.10th Aug 1918)

My grandfather, Frank Smith was killed before Nieppe Wood, West of Merville, on 8th August 1918 allegedly by gas, type unknown. He was taken to hospital west of Aire-sur-la-Lys, dying on 10th August. He was buried nearby in Aire Cemetery. I have acquired the unit diary, which states that there were no deaths on 10th August, but there were on the 8th. My granddad was probably one of these.
