Biography

The Parish Magazine of September 1918 records Harold as being ‘called to service’.  A family tree, provided by Bob Lawrence, shows that Harold was born in 1887 to Frederick and Emma Furr and that they had seven children: Amelia G (b 1883), George (b 1886), Harold (b 1887), Miriam (b 1890), William (b 1892), Augustus (b 1893) and Victor (b 1898).  He does not appear to have been living in Pirton at the time of the 1901 or 1911 census.  He would have been about twenty when he was called up.
