J.H. Elliott
Northumberland Fusiliers
7th December 1918
ELLIOTT John Hilton, 3247, Private, 7th Bn. Northumberland Fusiliers, died 7 December 1918 less than a month after the end of the war, aged 32.
The 1891 census shows John, age 3, living in Pottergate Place with his parents James, a tobacconist, and Elizabeth and siblings Thomas (14), also a tobacconist, Mary Jane (12), Annie (10), James (8) and 7 month old Lizzie.
He does not appear on Alnwick war memorial. There is a J.H. Elliott on the plaque in the Northumberland Hall A11.03 which I assume is him.

John Hilton Elliott is remembered in Alnwick on A11.03 and A11.09
