Pte. John Boyd
British Army 21st Btn. Manchester Regiment
from:Broughton, Salford
(d.4th October 1917)
John Boyd was my uncle and was killed during the third Battle of Ypres (Battle of Passchendaele) and is remembered on the Manchester Regiment Panel at the Tyne Cot Memorial.
My father Herbert Boyd, was the younger brother of John. They would both been in the 21st Btn when John was killed but, as my father never spoke about his wartime service or his brother John, I do not know if they met up again prior to this sad event.
