Percy Braham

Private Percy Braham, born Percival Abrahams, was an English soldier of the British Army who died during the First World War.
He was born in 1898, at Toxteth Park, the son of Polish-born tailor Sampson and Annie Abrahams (née Neiman), of Brighton. At the time of the 1911 Census, the Braham family, as they became known, were residing at 46 Tennyson Street.
Braham died on 1 July 1916, in the attack on Montauban on the opening day of the Somme Offensive, while serving with the 20th (Service) Battalion (3rd City), The King's (Liverpool Regiment). He was aged 17 at the time of his death and thus below the minimum age for overseas service.
He has no known grave and is commemorated by the Thiepval Memorial.
