After ten months of training Charles disembarked at France on 8th Jun 1915 and was wounded on his first day. Then, in another terrible coincidence with his brother Frederick, died of wounds after just eight days on <strong>16th Jun 1915<\/strong>. He had just turned 20. Charles was posthumously awarded the 1915 Star, Victory and British War Medals.<\/p>\n<p>Almost exactly a year later, Simeon and Mary Ann&#8217;s eldest and only surviving son <strong>Arthur<\/strong> enlisted 5th Jun 1916. He was aged 35 with a wife and two year old daughter. Arthur served as a Private with the Northampton 8th, 3rd and 6th, and also the Bedford 4th, and served in France twice (24th Nov 1916 to 12th Dec 1917, then 14th May 1918 to 13th Sep 1918). He received a gunshot wound to his left back-side and a more severe GSW to his left hand on 30th Aug 1918, but continued to serve up until 19th Apr 1919 when he was finally discharged.<\/p>\n<p><span
