Pte. David William "Dai Mock" Evans
British Army 15th (Carmarthenshire) Battalion Welch Regiment
from:Swansea
(d.30th April 1917)
David Evans was our grandfather who, I believe, joined up in Carmarthen in 1914/15. He was killed in action carrying out one of the first trench raids of the war at Morteldje Salient, Ypres on the 30th of April 1917.
He was 27 years old. He was married in 1914, I presume, prior to joining up and going to war. He left behind a wife and one child, my father. I don't know if he actually ever saw his son. Sadly, I never knew either of our grandparents or saw any pictures of them. Always in our thoughts.
