John Young
British Army 7th Battalion Royal Iniskilling Fusiliers
from:Welchtown, Donegal
(d.6th April 1916)
James and John Young were two brothers, my great-uncles, signed up and served together in the 7th Battalion of the Royal Iniskilling Fusiliers in WWI. James went to hospital to see to a wound he had received. When he returned to the trench, his brother John and the rest of the men in his group had been killed by a mortar shell. I have been unable to find any records other than the memoriam and the record of his grave at the Loos Memorial.
