Hi,
with regards to the earlier post
I believe you may have muddled the Michael Kings. Private Michael King number 8013 was my great uncle, and therefore at first I thought we might be related, but he died in KJanuary 1915.

with regards to the earlier post
Hello Martin, I want to THANK YOU profusely for your effort in this matter. I am fairly certain that my Uncle, Michael KING, Private #8013 of the First Batallion of the Northumberland Fusiliers qualifies for your site. Sadly, I have no photos, but my information is from the CWGC website, IGI. My Uncle was killed 16 June 1915 and left his widow, Emily (nee: Driscoll) and a son. There is a brass plaque memorializing both this Uncle and his Brother, Charles Thomas King, who was also killed in the Great War. The plaque is in St. Nicholas Cathedral in Newcastle-on-Tyne . Pat
