Not commemorated on any Tipton memorial, but commemorated on the Birmingham Roll of Honour.

Any other information
Thomas Prince is recorded as ‘Died’ on 9th May rather than ‘Died of Wounds’, this suggests that his death would have been due to illness rather than wounds. On 9th May the Battalion War Diary states: 1 Other Rank wounded, 3 sick, 1 Other Rank died of Cholera – this would be Thomas Prince.
