Charles Alsbury, 14th Btn. Durham Light Infantry

Charles Alsbury joined the 1st Derby Yeomanry and was transferred to the 14th Durham Light Infantry at Bethune. He was taken prisoner and I believe he was a POW in Poland at (I am not sure of the spelling) Gross Born, Borne Sulinowo/Schneidemuhl (Pila). He was repatriated and returned to England, marrying Edith Lilian Holt in 1924. They had a son Allan. Charles died in June 1979 in Derby.
