We had the pleasure some days ago of making the acquaintance of your son, Mr Harry Cree. He was coming from Rouen, and passing through Orleans, with a number of French and English comrades on his way to Paris. It was on the station platform where he had several hours to wait, that we engaged in our conversation. I, as well as my son, knew some little English, and we were able to act as interpreters between your son and my husband. Mr Harry was very friendly with us, and my husband offered to spend the time with him, which he readily accepted. When he was leaving, we promised to write and give you all the news, which is very good.
He is very jolly, and pleased to find himself in France, supporting the noble cause of the allied nations, with those who are fighting on our side. He does not doubt of final success. His health is excellent, and he does not seem to feel the fatigues of the war, as his temperament is so bright.
He is already looking forward to the time when, covered with glory, he will return to his own country, near those who love him.
It was with merry good humour that he told us the story of the first part of the campaign on the Belgian frontier, where he received his 'baptism of fire.' Also how he escaped the German bullet which was intended for him. He is present engaged in working a machine gun. On leaving us, he gave us great pleasure by accepting some garden fruits, which he seemed to like very much, as well as some roses, which were not too good for him at all.
Knowing that you will be pleased to hear this good news of your son, be good enough to accept, madame, our most cordial salutations and good wishes." - [S488] Website Commonwealth War Graves Commission (http://www.cwgc.org), http://www.cwgc.org/find-war-dead/casualty/1559607/CREE,%20HENRY%20GREER, "Rank: Rifleman

Rifleman Henry Greer Cree
Male, CreeID#7444, (17 April 1894 - 26 October 1914)
Charts | Line 17. The Perth glovers line Mini-chart 6286 Bangor |
Rifleman Henry Greer Cree was born on 17 April 1894 in Newtownards Reg Dist, County Down, Ireland.1,2,3 He was the son of Henry Greer Cleland Cree and Hannah Jane McQuoid.
On 31 March 1901 Rifleman Henry Greer Cree was living in the household of Henry Greer Cleland Cree and Hannah Jane McQuoid in 16 Holborn Street, Bangor, County Down, Ireland, along with Robert Hugh Cree, Margaretta Cree and Walter Osborne M Cree. Henry was a bricklayer aged 30 and Hannah was 29. She was shown as born in County Down. Henry and Ellen Butler and their daughter Christina were recorded as visitors.4
On 2 April 1911 Rifleman Henry Greer Cree was living in the household of Henry Greer Cleland Cree and Hannah Jane McQuoid in 52 Chadolly Street, Victoria, Belfast, County Down, Ireland, along with Robert Hugh Cree, Margaretta Cree, Walter Osborne M Cree and Reuben Norman Frederick Cree. Henry was a bricklayer aged 39 and Hannah Jane was 37. Robert aged 18 was an apprentice plumber; Henry, 16, was a labourer; Margerita (sic) was 12, Walter 10, Reubon 8, Clelland (sic) 6, William 4 and Helen 2. All were members of the Church of Ireland. In their 21 years of marriage Hannah Jane McQuoid had had 12 children of whom 8 were still alive.2
Rifleman Henry Greer Cree passed through Orléans, France, in September 1914. There he met Madame Villeneue and her family of Loiret. Mme Villeneue, obtaining his name and address, thoughtfully wrote an encouraging letter to his mother, Hannah Jane McQuoid. (A minor puzzle is that she refers to Henry as a Corporal.)5
Rifleman Henry Greer Cree died on 26 October 1914 in the Western Front, France. He has no known grave. Almost all of the men commemorated on the (Le Touret) Memorial... were killed in actions that took place along a section of the front line that stretched from Estaires in the north to Grenay in the south. This part of the Western Front was the scene of some of the heaviest fighting of the first year of the war, including the battles of La Bassée (10 October – 2 November 1914.)6 Rifleman Henry Greer Cree's name is inscribed on a memorial in Newtownards Road, Ballymacarrett, Belfast, Ireland.7

We had the pleasure some days ago of making the acquaintance of your son, Mr Harry Cree. He was coming from Rouen, and passing through Orleans, with a number of French and English comrades on his way to Paris. It was on the station platform where he had several hours to wait, that we engaged in our conversation. I, as well as my son, knew some little English, and we were able to act as interpreters between your son and my husband. Mr Harry was very friendly with us, and my husband offered to spend the time with him, which he readily accepted. When he was leaving, we promised to write and give you all the news, which is very good.
He is very jolly, and pleased to find himself in France, supporting the noble cause of the allied nations, with those who are fighting on our side. He does not doubt of final success. His health is excellent, and he does not seem to feel the fatigues of the war, as his temperament is so bright.
He is already looking forward to the time when, covered with glory, he will return to his own country, near those who love him.
It was with merry good humour that he told us the story of the first part of the campaign on the Belgian frontier, where he received his 'baptism of fire.' Also how he escaped the German bullet which was intended for him. He is present engaged in working a machine gun. On leaving us, he gave us great pleasure by accepting some garden fruits, which he seemed to like very much, as well as some roses, which were not too good for him at all.
Knowing that you will be pleased to hear this good news of your son, be good enough to accept, madame, our most cordial salutations and good wishes." - [S488] Website Commonwealth War Graves Commission (http://www.cwgc.org), http://www.cwgc.org/find-war-dead/casualty/1559607/CREE,%20HENRY%20GREER, "Rank: Rifleman
