Chailey Parish Magazine notes Fermor, Private P, 53rd Bedfordshire Regiment in its July 1918 issue and his information is then repeated up to and including the final published roll call in July 1919.

 

The 53rd Bedfordshire Regiment was a young soldiers’ battalion formed in late October 1917.  At the time Private Fermor was with the battalion it was based at Cannock Chase, Staffordshire.

 

Nothing else is known about this man.
