grantowi Posted 5 February , 2009 Share Posted 5 February , 2009 Hi Chaps, Can anyone shed any light on a Mr William J ADAMS He worked for the GWR as a Porter at Swindon Station fror 6 Months before joining up, previous to that he was at Doncaster for a year. He's not on the Swindon ROH, so Im guessing that he was just lodging in the town - possiblly replacing someone who had already joined up - but he is listed on the GWR ROH as Swindon based Cheers Grant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
