Fanny Partridge with her two boys, Robert Edgar aged 6 years, and James, aged 8 years

Newspaper clipping. Wednesday March 1st 1916.

 “Bad Luck”

Corporal Edgar Partridge, of the Army Pay Corps, Warley, Essex, identified the body of Fanny Partridge, aged 38, his sister-in-law and the wife of Staff Sergeant Partridge, now serving in the Persian Gulf .

Witness also identified Mrs Partridge’s two children – James aged eight, and Robert Edgar aged six.

They came to England , because they did not think they were safe in the district in which they were living in India , and they hoped to settle down here. The climate however, proved too much for them.

The Coroner: Bad luck? – Yes.
