Pte. Cecil Wiles
British Army 21st Battalion Kings Royal Rifles Corps
(d.8th Jul 1916)
Cecil was not called up as he was in a "protected occupation" as the eldest son of a farmer. However one Sunday morning outside the village church in West Pinchbeck a woman from the village thrust three white feathers into his breast pocket. He resolved to join up and left his wife of three months.
He was killed six months later.
