Pte. George Henry Hitchen
British Army 15th (Leeds Pals) Battalion Prince of Wales' Own West Yorkshire Regiment
from:Hunslet, Leeds.
(d.1st July 1916)
My grandma, Eva Marshall (Nee Hitchen), had 3 brothers who served in the First World War, 2 survived. However, George Henry Hitchen was reported as missing presumed killed. He is is remembered on the Thiepval Memorial however I cannot find his name on any memorials in his home town.
Little is known about the family and I would love to hear from anyone who has further information. Are you a Hitchen or do you know of anyone called Hitchen? They lived in and around Hunslet (South Accomadation Road area).
Any information would be appreciated.
