Remembered today, with Gratitude.

The First Tuck to die in France.

Private 7606 William Tuck 1^st Battalion Wiltshire Regiment

William was born in 1885 in Bishops Canning, Wiltshire the Son of Edward and Mary Ann. William was a professional soldier and on the outbreak of war married his sweetheart Bessie Lavinia Maud Sinnick. As a member of the British Expeditionary Force William and the rest of his Battalion landed in France on 28^th August 1914.

He was killed just 25 days later on 21/10/1914 aged 29. William has no known grave and is therefore commemorated on Le Touret Memorial, France.

Gone but not forgotten
