Pte. John Connolly

British Army 2nd Battalion Leinster Regiment

from:Birr, Offaly, Ireland

(d.20th Oct 1918)

My uncle, Private Jack Connolly served with the 2nd Battalion Leinster Regiment. Born in 1899 in Birr, Offaly, Ireland, he was the first born of Peter and Anne Connolly (nee McDonagh). He died 20th October 1918 in Flanders 21 days before the Armistice and 2 weeks before his 20th birthday. He is interred at Harlebeke New British Cemetry, West Vlaanderen, Belgium. What a waste!
