Pte. Thomas Kitchingham

British Army 6th Battalions East Kent Regiment

from:Hartlip, Kent

Thomas Kitchingham was born on 20 April 1897 at Place Farm, Hartlip, Kent. Unfortunately, we do not have the Service Records to confirm precisely when he joined and his precise service information, and we only have the medal card and medal roll to refer to. It would seem he initially joined the 6th Battalion East Kent Regiment before being transferred to the 7th Battalion, dates and details not known. It is understood from what his younger brother has mentioned, he was at the Battle of the Somme. Tom survived the war and eventually died in 1978 in Gillingham, Kent.
