Chris Posted 3 September , 2003 Share Posted 3 September , 2003 I wonder if anyone knows any further info about the above soldier, apart from that given on CWGC site. Gibson was the Great Uncle to a lady who is helping me look into my grandfathers service on HMS Biter in WWII, and in return i have posted her great uncles name on here in the hope that the pals will be able to provide some more info him. i.e Soldiers Died details, what the 4th Bn Yorks and Lancs were up to in the days before 15/11/1915 (date of Gibson's death). Any info would be greatly appreciated Thank you Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Posted 4 September , 2003 Author Share Posted 4 September , 2003 Thank you both Lee and Andy. Although we were aware he lived in Sheffield, we can now confirm he enlisted there as well, and i look forward, Andy, to seeing what the Bn were doing. Thank you both Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted 4 September , 2003 Share Posted 4 September , 2003 Chris, there's about four pages dedicated to the Batt around this time, would you rather I copied them and posted them to you? Email if me you do. Andy Fitton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
