Pte. Robert MacLaren
British Army 20th (1st Tyneside Scottish) Btn. Northumberland Fusiliers
from:Whitly Bay
(d.1st July 1916)
Robert's wife, Annie - nee Carr - emigrated to Melbourne, Australia with their son, also Robert, in 1928/9. Annie died in 1938. Her son Robert had four children [of which I am one] and at the end of his life, in 1992, was grandfather of eleven.
Such is the legacy of the 26 year-old Robert MacLaren who died on that awful day, 1/7/1916.
