7619 Lance-Corporal Robert Roseburgh of the 2nd Battalion, Royal Scots Fusiliers, was killed in action on the 19th July 1918. He was born in Galashiels and enlisted at Loanhead. His army number may belong to the series which was in use by the 3rd (Special Reserve) Battalion and, if does, dates to September 1914.
Robert Roseburgh, who had originally arrived in France on the 10th July 1915, has no known grave and is commemorated on the Ploegsteert Memorial.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, WE WILL REMEMBER THEM.
