Private Henry Hancock

We are grateful to Joanne Stowe who wrote to us in 2014 about her great great uncle, Harry Hancock, this man.  She confirmed that he is the Private H. Hancock on the Teddington memorial and the Henry Hancock on the Stanley School memorial. As a child he lived in Stanley Road.  He died at the Battle of the Somme and is buried at Grave Town Cemetery, Meaulte, France.
