Friday 13th June 1919


Pte. Fred Abbey (see 21st October 1917), who, since having been wounded in October 1917, had been transferred to 9DWR and eventually to 1st Battalion Northumberland Fusiliers, was formally discharged from the Army as no longer fit for military service.

Pte. Thomas Young (25815) (see 29th October 1917) was formally transferred to the Army Reserve Class Z; at some point (date and details unknown) he had been transferred from 10DWR to the Machine Gun Corps.

Clara Petty, widow of the late Pte. Arthur Tempest (see 1st February), who had re-married in January wrote to the authorities having received the form to be completed giving details of her late husband’s surviving relatives: “Just a line in answer to the form seeing as I have re-married I don’t really know what to do about it, as I have been married again since 1st February this year”. She would be requested simply to complete the form, which she duly did.
