121: Pte Robert Stewart (photograph)

<p dir="ltr">A small framed memorial photograph of Private Robert Stewart, my great-uncle. He served in the King's Own Scottish Borders and was killed in December 1916. He was buried near the causality clearing station. </p><p dir="ltr">As my grandmother could not afford to travel to his grave in France, I was the first family member to visit. Though I didn't know him, it was a very emotional experience. It was a small cemetery, I placed a small cross on his grave. When my grandmother died, the letters and objects relating to his service and death were passed to her grandson, my son.</p>
