Rfmn. Thomas James Lloyd
British Army 12th Battalion Rifle Brigade
from:Abertridwr, South Wales
(d.26th Sep 1915)
Thomas James Lloyd was my GG Grandfather. I stumbled across him while researching my family history. I remember my G Grandfather but unfortunately he had had a stroke & barely spoke. I had to send for his birth certificate and then I found Thomas.
Thomas was born abt 1876, married Elisa Jane & they had 6 boys. His wife died in 1912 & Thomas went to live with his mother. He was a coal miner when he enlisted on 9th September 1914 at Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales. His record states his age 34 but he was 38. He died on 26th September 1915 of war wounds received in action. He is buried at Merville, Nord, Nord-Pas-de-Calais, France.
