Pte. Ralph Pinkney
British Army 9th Battalion West Yorkshire Regiment
from:Byers Green, Co Durham
My granddad, Ralph Pinkney, was wounded in September 1916 and evacuated back to UK. He was then transferred to the Liverpool Regiment for the remainder of the war.
He ended his days as a market gardener in Cambridgeshire as he was no longer fit for coal mining (his pre-war role) following his injury.
