(d.12th May 1917)
Joseph Smith was my wife's great uncle. He died on 12th of May 1917 and is remembered on the Arras memorial, having no known grave. We believe he was killed during the battle for the chemical works at Roeux. He had been awarded the Military Medal earlier in the war. We do not know where or why he was awarded this medal
