from:St Helier, Jersey
(d.3 May 1915)
Lance Corporal Herbert Mallett Graut; 1st Battalion, Rifle Brigade (The Prince Consort's Own) (d. 3 May 1915)
My wife’s grandfather, Herbert Graut, from Jersey CI, died on 3 May 1915 during the Second Battle of Ypres somewhere near Hill 37. He has no known grave and is remembered on the Menin Gate Memorial. He left a wife and 5 year old son.
His brother, Henry Graut, Army Ordinance Corps, also died in France on 8 Feb 1919.
Research is complicated as his name is recorded in several places as Grant not Graut.
