Pte. William Carson

Britsh Army 2nd Btn. Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers

from:Wardhouse, Leitrim

William Carson born 1884, first joined the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers in 1902 for six years service. In the 1911 census then living in Ballyshannon, Donegal he was listed as a Army reservist.

The only records I have discovered from WW1 are his medal Index card and POW records from the International Red Cross records. He was captured on 17/9/1914 in Compienge, France and appears to have been held in many POW camps until the end of the war. He returned home and became a Postman in LetterKenny, Donegal and married Margaret Kelly in 1922. He died in 1931.
