Pte. John Haiden Cutts
British Army 2nd/10th Btn. London Regiment
from:15 Salmen Street, South Grove, Mile End, London
(d.22nd Sep 1917)
Jack Cutts was aged just 23 when he died, he is my maternal great uncle. I grew up knowing him only by photograph, standing proudly in his uniform. I also recall being fascinated as a child by the only other photo - of his headstone.
My 7 year old son is now learning about the Great War and as the only family member sharing the same Christian name "Jack", together we have been using the internet to find out more about our war hero relative. A humbling journey into the past. When I came across this website, I wanted to add his name to the list of those known to serve with the London Regiment. Gone but not forgotten!
Sadly, the photographs are no longer in the family, although I have been able to request a new one via the war graves project and I also have a small image of his face inserted into the back of a gold broach worn by his mother after his death.
