L/Cpl Wilfred Joseph Feeney
British Army 7th Btn South Lancashire Regiment
from:Farnworth Bolton
(d.24th of September 1917)
Wilfred Feeney was my great Uncle via my great Grandmother Ellen who was adopted by his family. He was exactly the same age as her so they grew up together.
In WW1 Wilfred served with the 7th Battalion South Lancashire Regiment. He died in the 3rd Battle of Ypres on 24th of September 1917 and the only information I have about him is on the attached image below, from a book called "Fallen in the Fight" about Farnworth soldiers.
Wilfred is buried Locre Hospice Cemetery II. B. 27. Belgium. Amongst his meager returned possessions was a lock of a woman's hair.
