The family lived in Hull where Harry attended Boulevard Municipal Secondary school and Hull University College. After university he was articled to a solicitor where he worked in Hull and Grimsby for five years and after completing his training he qualified as a solicitor and set up his own practice in Scunthorpe. In 1939, the family lived at 19 Home Street in Scunthorpe. He joined the Tank Regiment in 1940 and served through the whole Middle East campaign. At the beginning on 1946, he was posted back to England on account of his father&#8217;s illness and two days after his demobilisation he was taken ill and rushed to hospital for an operation for appendicitis where he sadly died. News of his son&#8217;s sudden death is believed to have hastened his father&#8217;s end and he died the following day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BL_0000324_19350722_052_0006-page-001-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29979\" width=\"402\" height=\"252\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BL_0000324_19350722_052_0006-page-001-1.jpg 177w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BL_0000324_19350722_052_0006-page-001-1-120x75.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 402px) 100vw, 402px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-2023-01-29-104003.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29980\" width=\"400\" height=\"164\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-2023-01-29-104003.jpg 242w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot-2023-01-29-104003-120x49.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jewish Chronicle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"896\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/tna_r39_6448_6448d_024-700x896.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29981\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/tna_r39_6448_6448d_024-700x896.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/tna_r39_6448_6448d_024-250x320.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/tna_r39_6448_6448d_024-768x983.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/tna_r39_6448_6448d_024-1200x1536.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/tna_r39_6448_6448d_024-1600x2048.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/tna_r39_6448_6448d_024-120x154.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/tna_r39_6448_6448d_024-scaled.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">1939 Register<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"700\" height=\"525\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Shapero-700x525.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28664\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Shapero-700x525.jpeg 700w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Shapero-250x188.jpeg 250w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Shapero-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Shapero-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Shapero-2048x1536.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Shapero-120x90.jpeg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Harry &amp; Louis buried together<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BL_0000324_19460130_049_0004-page-001-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-29978\" width=\"403\" height=\"1508\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BL_0000324_19460130_049_0004-page-001-1.jpg 139w, https:\/\/www.rememberingthejewsofww2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/BL_0000324_19460130_049_0004-page-001-1-120x449.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 403px) 100vw, 403px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Harry Shapero Serjeant, Royal Army Service CorpsService number: 7914028Died 6 Jan 1946Buried East Ham (Marlow Road) Jewish Cemetery, United Kingdom Age 33 Harry was born 11 March 1913 in Hull, East Yorkshire to Ukraine born father Louis, a manufacturing tinsmith, and Polish mother Esther nee Jacob and he had an older sister Pearl.
