Edward Marc 6th Bn KLR 242194

Rifleman Edward Marc 242194 6th Bn King's Liverpool Regiment

I think he only served overseas for a few months before being killed but any information about his military service would be gratefully received. His name is from the Holy Trinity Memorial I am currently researching and I am also in contact with his great-niece who would appreciate anything she can learn about her great-uncle.
