I have been researching my granfather's military records and his "pal" who was killed 22/11/15.
James oliver YEATES, Pte. 15662 M.M.
born in Elmston Hardwick, Cheltenham and his pal
James (Jim), Edward GROVES, Pte. 15656
born Shurdington, Gloucester, K.i.a. 22/11/1915, buried at le touret military cemetry. Jim is remembered on the war memorial at St. Marys church Priors Norton.
I remember my grandfather well visited the old battelfields in 1964 with him and have researched Jim in his memory. I have visited jims grave in France as well.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with anything about either of the two.
Thnks Mike
