1916  7th November

1/8th Battalion  Worcestershire Regiment

Might be remembered on St Stephen's war memorial as Joseph H. Ward but not 100% sure about this but another Harry Ward died in 1917.


The Worcestershire Regiment, 1/8th Battalion, 144th Brigade, 48th (South Midland) Division, November – Tours in line in Le Sars sector.

Possibly registered at birth as Joseph Henry Ward in 1894 in the Bromsgrove District.  Unable to verify this as always known as Harry on census.
