Private Robert Stanley Watterson
Army Kings Liverpool

I believe Pte. Robert Stanley Watterson served in Egypt and was on the Transylvania which sunk on 4th May 1917. I cannot ascertain whether the ship was returning to the UK or going to Egypt. He ended up in France where he was injured with shrapnel wounds to his back and right leg. This happened during the closing days of the conflict. He convalesced at Prees Heath and was discharged from the service on 19th August 1919 as a member of the Loyal North Lancs, having served during the war with Kings Liverpool. His grandsons have asked about his involvement in the conflict, but he, during his lifetime, never spoke of his experiences.
