One of her children by her first marriage, (thus no relation to me) Walter Chaplin Scarr was killed in action June 2, 1916 at Ypres, Battle, of Mont Sorrel, 1st Canadian Mounted Rifles, Regimental Number 106537.
I mention this as my grandfather Percy Simmonds was also in the 1st Canadian Mounted Rifles, Regimental Number 106553.
As it turned out both were in action on June 2, 1916 at Mont Sorrel. That day the 1st and 4th CMR’s were heavily shelled, undermined, driven from their positions and took huge numbers of casualties. Both men were reported missing in action, presumed dead. Both were found a few days later. Walter was found dead by the Canadians with several bayonet wounds. Percy had been found by the Canadians but they left him for dead. Percy was later found badly wounded by the Germans, taken POW and survived. Walter’s body was buried but the grave was lost, so his name was recorded on the Menin Gate Memorial. The grave was found several years later. It seems Percy was very fortunate not to have suffered the same fate.
