Charles Henry Bradley
British Army West Yorkshire Regiment
from:Holbeck, Leeds
My Grandfather, Charles Bradley married my Grandmother, Emily in 1912 in Leeds. They had one daughter, my mother, Marjorie, born posthumously. Charles died at the beginning of March 1920 and my mum was born the end of March, so he never got to see her. She only ever knew her stepfather, when my Gran remarried 5 years later.
I am trying to find out about Charles, my mum did have a photo but it was destroyed when she died, to my great regret. I am not sure if he received a medal or not, I have tried researching him but the facts do not seem to tie in as at that time he was married, I have the wedding certificate.
I think this is such a sad story, one of thousands. All I know is he was born in Bradford,in 1887, but moved to Leeds when young.
