Circumstances of Death

Albert is listed as being killed in action on 12th September 1917. Unfortunately the 152nd Siege Battery war diary entries for July, August and September are missing or misplaced and an internet search did not turn up any information and therefore we cannot comment on where or how Albert was killed.
