Sapper 313296 Arthur Hale
DOB 1889 Dudley

Killed in Action on Thursday, 21st February 1918, age 29.
Buried in Grave C. 23. at Neuville-Bourjonval British Cemetery, Pas De Calais, France.

Yes it is confusing?

There is this one, has his date of birth as 1884?
First name(s) Arthur
Last name Hale
Birth year 1884
Birth parish Sedgley
Birth town Gornal Wood
Birth county Staffordshire
Birth country England
Service number 6658
Regiment South Staffordshire Regiment
Year 1902
Attestation date 13 Jan 1902
Attestation age years 18
Attestation service number 6658
Attestation corps 3rd S Staff R
Document type Attestation

In 2020 I was contacted by the great grandson of Alfred Hale who had died from Tuberculosis in 1918, after having been discharged from the South Staffs in 1916 due to sickness. It was suggested that the A. Hale on the Tipton Memorial would have been Alfred, and I agree. The difficulty in finding Alfred was because he is not commemorated by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, and so did not look like a military death.

This is saying it could be an Alfred Hale. I wonder if his service number can be searched?

The arthur that was married to Sarah was born 18/6/89

There are two Arthurs born 1889 in Dudley

Thank you kdw!

The other Arthur I think is this one
First name(s) Arthur
Last name Hale
Age 28
Birth year 1889
Birth county Staffordshire
Birth country England
Service number 39880
Regiment Staffordshire Regiment
Unit / Battalion 5th Battalion
Year 1917
Residence town Wolverhampton

Looks like he was a bit naughty, deserting and stealing a horse in service! He married Harriet Lambert and was living 41 /42 Hill Street Ruiton Upper Gornal 1911.

So it must be the right Arthur and for that grave.

Thank you Jo & Kdw
