Pre War
He was apparently in the 19th London Regiment, but of the six casualties mentioned in ‘Soldiers died’ database none of them could be positively identified as having been born, enlisting or residing in Hitchin.
Likewise it has not been possible to identify him in the Medal Rolls due to the frequency of the name. In the records of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission there are four casualties with this name, but again none of them could be identified as having any association with Hitchin.
However there is a Private 91031 Harry Jackson who was born in Hitchin, enlisted in Louth and who is not on the Hitchin memorials, perhaps, Harry is this man, and the initial ‘C’ is an error. Harry’s biography is included on this site against Hitchin.
