Killingbeck Hospital death 1918 - burial?

[mmm45]

Hi Nigel
If he is a Non Commemorated soldier and you need any advice( when you find him!) let me know ive just successfully had a lad added to CWGC Debt of Honour i suspect he lies in an unmarked grave in East Ardsley after dying of TB in Carr Gate hospital in 1918 after discharge.Thankfully i had a partial record survive and hes on my local war memorial and the Death Cert was useful as it tied in with cause of discharge.
Maybe a case of viewing all George Hands Medal Index Cards and seeing if any are discharged then follow those up
Also try Yorkshire Indexers if you suspect a Leeds Connection.
Could he be listed as George Hamilton?

Good luck

If you state he is on Pershore WM then the above link if you open and scroll down you will see there is/was a scrapbook made incorporating pages on the lads on the memorial so hopefully will find him in there.

Nice one in fact extremely nice. We are on to that and should have some one in there taking a look next week!
I have already done the name variations and no luck. There is a rellie in Worcestershire who is still alive !! I am suggesting she gets in the library and to the memorail for a photo - we'll see?
Cheer - again!!!!

Have you tried Killingbeck Cemetery or Harehills Cemetery in Leeds.  Killingbeck adjoined Killingbeck Hospital.  Would help if you knew his religious denomination.  I think I'm right in saying that Killingbeck was where Roman Catholics are buried.
