Pte. Patrick Rocks
British Army 14th Btn. Durham Light Infantry
from:Middlestone Moor
(d.27th Sep 1915)
Patrick was the eldest son of Catherine Rocks and James Rocks (deceased). Before the First World War he was a coal hewer. He almost certainly lied about his age to enlist, as many did. He was killed in action on his second day at Loos. Never forgotten.
If anyone has photographs of the 14th Battalion, D company - copies would be hugely appreciated.
