Just before my grandmother passed away aged 98 in 1999, she gave me a necklace that my great uncle Robert gave to her prior to leaving for France. He had bought it whilst training in Egypt. I hope to bury it at grave of an unknown soldier on the 100th anniversary of his death. I have never seen a photograph of my great uncle, but his christian name lived on in both my father and I, even if the surname didn't quite. My gran only lost an 'L', going from Willson to Wilson on getting married.
Robert Wilson
