Abstract
Photographs of my great uncle 1714 Private Frank Kelty
who joined the 2nd / 10th Manchester Regiment in 1916. He died on the 5th of September 1916, at which time he was attached to the King's Liverpool Regiment, and is buried in Euston Road Cemetery in France.
I was told he had joined under age and his elder brother informed the authorities and he left the army and went to work in munitions.
He then rejoined the army when he was old enough, but it is apparent from his diary entries (submitted separately) that he had done so very reluctantly.
