Pte. Alexander Dawes
British Army 1st Btn. North Staffordshire Regiment
from:Hendsford/ Shirebrook
(d.12th March 1915)
Alexander Dawes died aged 32 and is commemoratted on the Plugstreet (Ploegsteert) Memorial. We thought he had not been buried, then on a visit to Ypres in 1991 I spoke to someone researching his Greatgrandfather's war diary. After sending me a copy I found he was killed after taking trenches at Le Epinet and buried with others.
