[/img] "REMEMBERED TODAY! MY G-GRANDFATHER FREDERICK In Memory of Private F RODAWAY 307255, 4th Bn., The King's (Liverpool Regiment) who died on 18 August 1916 Remembered with honour CATERPILLAR VALLEY CEMETERY, LONGUEVAL FREDERICK enlisted on 1 November 1915 as No 5015 in the 8th (Territorial) Battalion of the King's (Liverpool) Regt. He crossed to France on an unknown date after 31/12/15 and was subsequently transferred to 4 KLR (which was a Service Battalion) again date of transfer not known. As his number remained a TF one he kept the terms of his original enlistment. In early 1917, and after his death on 18 August 1916 he was renumbered to 307255(a number which is also associated with 8 KLR). This is unusual as men were usually only kept on the books if they were reported as missing - this includes wounded and missing . If this is indeed the case it is likely that his remains were found sometime after his death, ie after early 1917. and buried in Caterpillar Valley Cemetery Plot XIII, Row E, Grave 1. What is certain is that there was insufficient time to move him to one of the large Base Hospitals on the coast suggesting that he was fatally wounded on or just prior to 18 August. HE WAS 47 years of age Attachments:
