Private Jesse Alexander McInnis
POW Record held in the Archives of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Geneva, Switzerland. Private McInnis was one of 3 Canadians whose grave was in the POW Section of the German cemetery at Denain, France. Many of the POW graves were identified and moved to the British section, however 3 remained unidentified. Unfortunately, there is no information on his POW card (no PA file reference) so we have no additional information at this time.
