COMPLETED Missing Soldier
« on: Saturday 07 November 20 17:49 GMT (UK) »
Hello, I came across a non CWG headstone in a churchyard yesterday. I have been unable to find him on the CWGC website. I wonder if someone can help me in my search.
John William Probin, 2nd Lieutenant, West Riding Reginent, died 13 April 1918, aged 25  at Bailliue, France, son of John and Harriet Probin.
