Hello to All,
This is my first time of subscribing to this list & am hoping those more knowledgable than I, will very kindly help.
I have just discovered a relative via the Commonwealth War Graves Commission site who was killed in the Great War.
He was Second Lieutentant WILLIAM JENNINGS, 5th Bn., Yorkshire Regiment, who died age 23 on 31 July 1918, son of FANNY JENNINGS, of 254, Linthorpe Road., Middlesbrough, Yorks. & the late WILLIAM JENNINGS.
Remembered with honour, BEAUREPAIRE FRENCH NATIONAL CEMETERY, PONTAVERT.
I would love to find out how he died - which battle etc. - also information regarding the YORKSHIRE REGIMENT.

My sincere thanks in anticipation.
