Pte. Jonathan Burchell
British Army 1st Battalion Royal Fusiliers
from:Tottenham
(d.24th Sep 1915)
Jonathan Burchell is my husband's great uncle. He was born at Peckham, the son of William and Jane Burchell. According to the 1911 census he was a polisher. He married Margaret Scierloh in 1911 and they had 2 daughters, Elizabeth and Annie (who died as a baby). Margaret remarried in 1919 to a William Baldwin but I do not know what happened after that. He was killed in action and buried in the New Irish Farm Cemetery, North East of Ypres in Belgium.
