WW1 East Kent Regt. The Buffs Set Of 3 Brothers Medals & Death Plaques – Sharp. The Sharp family were from 4, Sole St. Crundale, Near Canterbury, Kent. Stephen and Sarah Elizabeth Sharp had a number of children, and this set includes a copy of both the 1891, 1901 and 1911 Census Records and medal records. They sadly lost 2 sons in action in 1916, and this set includes medals, death plaques for 3 of their sons, and one photo memorial card of Frederick. It is mounted and inset on board with a green felt background. Albert James Sharp – G/219 East Kent Regt. 6th Battalion, The Buffs and was sadly killed in action on 6/3/16. Albert is remembered with honour at the Loos Memorial. Set includes his Victory Medal and Death Plaque. He was awarded a trio but the other medals are not included. George Sharp – G/6442 & L/11620 East Kent Regt. The Buffs and thankfully he survived the war. Set includes his full entitlement of his trio of medals. Frederick Thomas Sharp – K. 9940 Leading Stoker, Royal Navy served on HMS Garry, and sadly was killed in action on 22/8/16. Set includes his Star, War Medal, photo on memorial card and Death Plaque. Unfortunately the Victory Medal is not included & the photo is on the front of the memorial card of which the back is missing. He is buried at Crundale St. Mary Churchyard in Kent. The set also includes 2 Jutland Memorial Discs, 1 fob with approx diameter 22mm and a larger one 45mm as per photos. These both are commemorating those who fell at the battle. These were included when I bought this family set, and dont relate to these 3 brothers. As per census records they may possibly relate to the other brothers of this same family who also served, or extended family? I dont know it requires research, but as they were included it seemed right for them to stay together, as the family had kept them together. Please note some of the records have mis-spelt the surname incorrectly eg CWGC so Sharpe in error when should be Sharp. Please refer to photos for overall condition, & any questions just ask. I will be listing more items over the next few days, please come back & take a look. Please feel free to ask any questions, condition is as per photos. If you require any additional photos or info please just ask. The item “WW1 East Kent Regt, The Buffs Set Of 3 Brothers Medals & Death Plaques Sharp” is in sale since Friday, July 3, 2020.
