67611 Gunner Charles Alfred Gidney of L Battery, Royal Horse Artillery, died of wounds on the 2nd September 1914. He was 20 years old and he is buried in Baron Cemetery in France.
Charles Gidney's medal index card notes that he arrived in France on the 15th August 1914 and that his father applied for his son's 1914 Star in November 1918. The address was The White House, Marsham, Norwich. There is an additional note that his British War Medal was "returned found" on the 21st August 1975.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, WE WILL REMEMBER THEM.
