L/Cpl. Leo Wilson
British Army 1/10th Btn. Manchester Regiment
from:Southport
(d.22nd Aug 1918)
We have been part of the Sefton "beyond the war memorials" project, which meant any household in the area which was originally the home address of the soldier who died was sent a pack of his details.
We were very privileged to get this man, Leo Wilson who lived in our house 100 years ago and sadly died less than 2 months before the end of the war. He apparently joined the army in 1916, was in charge of a Lewis gun section, and is remembered at Sucrerie Military Cemetery in France.
