Pte. Joseph Heggadon
British Army 3rd Btn. Duke of Cornwall's Light Infantry
from:Petrockstowe
(d.5th June 1917)
I came across Joseph Heggadon's grave which was scruffy and uncared for in the Freshwater All Saints churchyard and wondered who he was and why he was buried here.
Google searches provided the information and although he is on the Petrockstowe War Memorial he has now also been remembered at his permanent resting place. He was, like so many, only 19.
