Cpl. William Murray
British Army 13th Btn. Middlesex Regiment
from:Cumbernauld, Scotland
(d.31st Aug 1916)
We know nothing about Willie Murray's war - just he was there as he was given as living in Kilburn, north of London on enlistment. And we know he was killed in action on 31st August 1916. He is the only WW1 serviceman on the Cumbernauld memorial who is not in a Scottish regiment. His sister Jane (my grandmother) carried the only surviving photo of him until she died.
