CSM. Ernest Kendrick
British Army Royal Irish Rifles
from:Chester
(d.12th Mar 1915)
I have seen the memorial in the Chester City town Hall referring to Ernest Kendrick (I was referred to it because of my surname).
I did not think anything of it until my wife and I were walking through Overleigh Cemetery in Chester and came across a rather dilapidated headstone which when we cleared off we found to be Ernest's.
I now know that he is listed on the Le Touret Memorial in Pas de Calais.
He served with the Royal Irish Rifles and died on 12th March 1915.
I have now registered Ernest on the 'EveryManRemembered' web site, but am hoping that someone could shed some light on how he became CSM with an Irish Regt or if there is a copy of a photo somewhere showing what he looked like etc.
