Hi,

I'll send you a pm with the details of a chap called Andy who's collected alot of information on Tipton men who were killed during the First World War and it's possible he may have further infomation on this chap.

Beardie very kindly gave me Andy's email address and he proved very helpful.

Hi Adrian - I wonder if you would be able to get me any more information on my relation from Tipton who was killed in the first world war, and he lived in Dudley Port. He is Private Sidney Riley was serving with the 11th Batallion Cheshire Regiment - Service No 17955, son of William Charles and Caroline Riley. He died on the 20 July 1916. Also William Charles Riley, William Charles was killed in action in World War 1. He was a rifleman in the 9th Batalion, Rifle Brigade and is buried in Ypres Cemetery (Menin Gate). He died on the 30 July 1915 in Belgium. I don't suppose there is any more information I can get is there ?

Hi Antie Em,

I will send you a pm with Andy's email because he maybe able to give some further information and it's worth checking anyway

Adrian
