Pte. Herbert George Auburn
British Army 6th Btn. East Kent Regiment
from:Tottenham, Middlesex
(d.29th Aug 1918)
My uncle Herbert George Auburn, my fathers eldest brother. My father (aged 3) remembers standing in the kitchen one morning when Herbert, came into the kitchen dressed in full uniform. 'Look at me mum' said Herbert, 'don't I look smart', my grandmother cried and my father never saw him again. So sad.
Still remembered Herbert, you were never forgotten by your brokenhearted parents, brothers and sisters. RIP.
