L/Cpl. Alfred Law

British Army 7th Btn. Gloucestershire Regiment

from:Smethwick, Staffordshire

(d.8th Aug 1915)

My great uncle Alfred Law, was born in 1897 in Smethwick, Staffordshire. When war was announced he went to enlist at Smethwick and joined the 7th Battalion of the Gloucestershire Regiment. I do not know the places he fought at but I do know that he died on the 8th August 1915 at Gallipoli while fighting alongside the Anzacs. His brother (my Grandfather) who was fighting in Palestine was not told for two weeks because of being in conflict there.

We as a family are very proud of what he died for and as a memorial to him we light a lantern every night so that it can burn bright in honour of his bravery.
