Very sad but nice to see where he was laid to rest. I have been doing a lot of research trying to find out what happened on the Somme on 2nd July 1918 when he was listed as killed in Action because \i thought the 2nd Battle of the Somme, the German counter attack, was over by April 1918. I'll be visiting the Regimental Museum of the Royal West Kent Regiment (Queens Own) at Maidstone Kent this Summer to see what more I can find out. if anyone has any info re events of the 2nd July 1918 I would much appreciate it.
Sadly Henry was a married man with 4 children under 10 years, he had married in 1907 at Camberwell South London. he was 34 years old.
