He was born in 1909, at St George, the eldest son of Italian-born waiter Tranquillo and Annie Florence Tarchetti (née Hammant), a registered midwife of Ashford.
Tarchetti, a rifleman with the 9th Cameronians, died on 2 July 1940, when the passenger ship SS Arandora Star was torpedoed by the German U-boat U-47 off Ireland. More than 800 passengers and crew perished, many of whom were German and Italian internees being transported to Canada.
