208945 Pte. James Parry British Army 1st Battalion East Lancashire Regiment from:Ashton-in-Makerfield, Wigan (d.1st March 1919) My Grandmother never knew but always loved her Uncle Jimmy who died aged 21 due to the effects of mustard gas. His parents were Joseph and Elizabeth Parry who were Welsh miners that had moved to Bryn, Ashton in Makerfield when the mines opened. Jimmy was injured and was cared for at the Lord Derby War Hospital in Winwick, Warrington, England. He is buried at St Thomas' Churchyard in his home town of Ashton. We have no photo's of him or the other family members who died in the service of our country. But his memory is lovingly kept in the memory of his descendants through the love of a niece who he never met.
