Pte. Fred Wilson
British Army 7th Btn. Lincolnshire Regiment
from:Riby, Lincolnshire
(d.23rd Apr 1917)
Fred wilson was my uncle who I only found out about while researching my family tree.
His name is on my Grandfather's death certificate. Grandfather died in 1914 and died 11 months after my father was born, and my grandmother died 5 days after my father's birth so I know very little about Fred. Except that he was in the 7th Battalion, Lincolnshire Regiment and had enlisted at Habrough but do not know when.
There is a memoriam plaque in Riby church that bears his name along with others who had failed to return.
