John Taylor and Ann Norman have submitted the following:
Frederick Joseph Aisbitt was born about 1891/2 in Gateshead. In the 1901 census he is recorded as a schoolboy living with his widowed mother, Margaret, who was a self employed dressmaker and his brother Norman, who was a year younger. Also living with the family was his mother’s sister, Ann Stott, so he may have been related to the Stott family, of whom two are also remembered on the memorial. The family lived at Rock Cottages, Wrekenton, on the site of the present Co-op. In the 1911 census he is recorded as a grocer living at home at the Old School House, Wrekenton, with Norman, his mother, his stepfather Robert Dobson and four younger half-siblings.
He originally served in the Durham Light Infantry, regimental number 30449, and later transferred to 13th Battalion, Northumberland Fusiliers, regimental number 46721. He was also promoted to the rank of Corporal. He was killed in action on the Western Front, on 16th June 1917.
He is remembered in Eighton Banks on E50.01 and E50.02
The name is spelled "Aisbett" on the memorial and correctly as "Aisbitt" on the CWGC entry.
