I’m looking for soldiers!
Do you have a member of your family who died around from 15th June to 20th June 1915 at Ypres?
If you do, was he a soldier in one of these regiments?
Northumberland Fusiliers
Honourable Artillery Company
Royal Fusiliers
Wiltshire Regiment
Worcestershire Regiment
The Kings (Liverpool Scottish) Regiment
South Lancashire Regiment
Royal Scots Fusiliers
Royal Irish Rifles
Lincolnshire Regiment
Gordon Highlanders
Cheshire Field Company (Royal Engineers)
He may, of course, be attached to one of these regiments from his own. The crucial point is Ypres and the dates.
The Battle of Bellewaarde (sometimes known as Hooge) took place on 16th June 1915. If you are researching family history and this appears to be the right time and place, you can find a mass of information at:
www.bellewaarde1915.co.uk If you have a member of your family who served there and died or survived you can ask to have them added to the site
I wish you luck with your family history
