    Private William Stemp, died on 8th September 1918, aged 23
    Born in Merrow, he was the sixth and youngest son of Thomas and Rhoda Stemp, of Myrtle Cottage, Down Road, Merrow. The 1901 Census shows the family as living there and his father, then aged 45, was a fly driver (a fly was a small horse-drawn vehicle plying for hire like a taxi nowadays - Thomas in later years is shown in Kelly's Directory as a fly carriage proprietor). William's five elder brothers were Fred, Sydney, Thomas, Frank and Herbert. In 1901 he also had one younger sister, Kate. Before joining the Army, he was employed at Frensham. Camp and, prior to that, he was a carpenter employed by Brown and Lilly Ltd, of Walnut Tree Close, Guildford.
    William enlisted in July 1915 and served in the 2nd 4th Battalion of The Queen's (Royal West Surrey) Regiment, going out to Egypt in February 1916 to join it there after its return from Gallipoli. Frank Blundell was one of the Merrow men already there. The Battalion guarded the Suez canal until January 1917 and then took part in the campaign against the Turks in Palestine and Syria. After heavy fighting in three attacks on Gaza in March, April and November 1917, the Battalion reached Jerusalem which surrendered on 9th December. William Stemp was wounded in the left thigh in April, probably in the second battle of Gaza.
    In June 1918 the Battalion was transferred to the Western Front and fought on the Marne in July and August before moving north to Flanders where in September it went into the front line east of Mount Kemmel. It was there that William suffered the wounds from which he died on 8th September. He was buried at Esquelbecq Military Cemetery which is about 30 km west of Ypres and adjacent in 1918 to two Casualty Clearing Stations.
    William's five elder brothers all served in France. Fred was a Corporal in a Labour Company, Sydney and Thomas were both in the Cyclists Brigade, Frank was in the Canadian Infantry and Herbert was a Driver in the Royal Field Artillery.

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
