234311 Pte. Henry John Williams British Army 9th BTn. Cheshire Regiment from:Pendeen, Cornwall. (d.24th June 1918) Harry Williams was my grandmother's nephew. I remember as a small child in the late 1940s, seeing his photo on the mantelpiece at his family's home. He is on the Roll of Honour in Pendeen, also his name appears on the War Memorial in Penzance. I am trying to locate a photo of him but have not yet been able to do so. He enlisted in Penzance, as a Private. He sadly died of wounds in a Rouen Hospital and is buried in St. Sever Cemetery Extension.
