Gravestone, Knock Burial Ground
Image: © Rossographer Taken: 11 Sep 2011
Military gravestone for a Private J. Corbett of the 19th Battalion The Queen's (Royal West Surrey Regiment). Private Corbett died on the 9th March 1919; from east Belfast, his father John Corbett lived at 27 Cuba Street, Newtownards Road. Also mentioned on the stone is Francis William Corbett who died, aged 15 years and 3 months, on the 2nd March 1917. From what I can gather Francis was a civilian, probably a brother to the above; he is buried at nearby Knockbreda Image
