Here are some names of soldiers and sailors that I have found on Ancestry.co.uk and other websites, said to have died at Netley but were buried elsewhere.

The names in purple were found by Colin Seivwright who very kindly searched the Scottish War Graves.

The names in brown were found by Brenda who is a fellow Netley researcher who very kindly looked through the Welsh newspapers.

I came across your site while doing research on my grandfather.

He was Michael Joseph Carey and a regular in the 2nd Battalion The Rifle Brigade (Although later he was moved in the 1st WW to the 12th Battalion)

He was hospitalized at the Royal Victoria Hospital and died there on 16th November 1920

He had been thrown by his horse when a shell landed nearby in France at Cambrai WW1 and was unconscious for over 24 hours. Did not report it and 12 months later got a tumor on the brain and died there.

He came from southern Ireland.He fought at Omdurman in the Sudan with Kitchener and Churchill in 1898. 8000 British troops, 17000 Sudan and Egyption troops all versus 60000 dervishes!!!

He was at the siege of Ladysmith in the Anglo Boer War in South Africa. Then stationed in India on the border with Tibet and Nepal near Raniket where my mother was born in 1906. China had just walked into Tibet and the Rajah was worried they might threaten India.

He was in Flanders in the 1st WW. where he got the MC and mentioned in dispatches. His other medals were Nile Expedition Medal, Khedive Sudan Medal, Queens SA Medal, Kings SA Medal,British War Medal, Victory Medal and Long Service and Good Conduct Medal.

His campaigns were Nile Expedition1898, Occupation Crete 1898,South Africa 1899-1902 and Great War 1914-1918

He started off as a ranker and then became the Regiments RSM.He was then in WW1 promoted to Lieutenant. He married my grandmother (Susan Winifred) who was also Irish in Cairo. She was an army school teacher.Story goes she went to Egypt to get married in a sailing ship and was so ill that in those days they used to tie you to the mast. They were going to leave her at Gibraltar but she would have none of it she was determined to get married in Cairo where Michael was stationed. When I was little she used to get me to walk up and down balancing a book on my head! To make me stand up straight. Her father was in the Royal Engineers and had been born in Gibraltar.

Although I was born and bought up in the UK I have lived in South Africa for the last 40 years or so, so I don't come there very often. I have always assumed that my grandfather was buried close to the Royal Victoria Hospital so if you get the time to have a look it really would be much appreciated to find out if he is buried there.

Chris Steadman

Michael was living in Winchester with his wife Susan and daughter Winifred according to the 1911 census and he is buried at (West Hill) Old Cemetery there. There is a photo of his grave on The War Graves Photographic Project site

Thank you to Chris for his story.
