from:Seaforth, Liverpool
(d.22nd June 1916)
Albert Brandwood joined the 201st Field Coy Royal Engineers, on the 22nd June 1916, aged 43. Our family history talks of our great Grandfather being killed by a sniper on 22nd June 1916 (8 days before the Battle of the Somme) whilst asleep in a trench. It was most likely he was involved the construction of the Russian Saps.
