ROYAL IRISH FUSILIERS

Royal Irish Fusiliers on panel 140

Panels 140 and 141 at Tyne Cot cemetery contains the names of members of the Royal Irish Fusiliers killed in World War One. They died mainly around the time of the Battle of Passchendaele in 1917.

Their remains were never recovered so they had no known graves and their names were listed here. Among them (and featured separately in my blog) is that of Private Hugh Dalzell from Belfast (bottom right of panel 140).

On the next panel 141 there is the name of Private Robert Hamilton from Ballinode, Co. Monaghan (born in Clabby, Co. Fermanagh).
