Their story
Sergeant Frederic H. Knight, born in Yorkshire, England, immigrated with his family to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and served with K Company, 110th Infantry Regiment, 28th Division. He was killed in action crossing the River Ourcq on July 30, 1918, one day after his brother Edmund died in the same action; the two were buried several rows apart at Oise-Aisne because their relationship was not then known.
