Pte. Robert Murray
British Army Northumberland Fusiliers
(d.24th April 1917 )
My Grandfather Robert Murray died at the 2nd Battle of Arras on the 24th April 1917 at the age of 39 years. He was a miner from Sunderland and joined the Northumberland Fusuliers. I was told that because of this he was was used to help dig tunnels. He is buried at a cemetery near Arras in France.
He left a wife and 5 children. My Father was a baby when his father was killed.
