223260 L/Sgt. William Rowberry MM. British Army 10th Battalion Royal Warwickshire from:Stone, Worcestershire (d.18th Nov 1916) My great grand uncle, William Rowberry, was born in 1876 in Stone, Worcestershire, the son of John and Emma. Like most of his immediate family he was an agricultural labourer, although by 1901 he was living with his older brother Thomas and his family in Aston, Birmingham and working as a Carter. He joined up in early 1915 and was in France by July. William received the Military Medal probably during the Battle of the Somme and he was killed on the last day of that engagement. He has no known grave and is mentioned on the memorial at Thiepval and at Stone Parish Church Please type your message:      We recommend you copy the text about this item and keep a copy on your own computer before pressing submit.
