Pte. Peter Farrelly
British Army 9th Btn. Royal Munster Fusiliers
from:Relaghan, Shercock, Co. Cavan
(d.28th March 1916)
Peter Farrelly is named on Loos-en-Gohalle memorial, but name incorrectly spelled as "Farley".
This is almost certainly because, to this day, people in his part of Ireland mispronounce "Farrelly" as "Farley". So when he was asked his name it would have been entered on his records incorrectly.
