David_Blanchard Posted 6 June , 2006 Share Posted 6 June , 2006 Hello, Would it be possible to scan me a 'painting' from Illustrated London News of Lieutenant Philip M Young of the Kings Liverpool Regiment meeting his death on the German wire, at the battle of Neuve Chapelle ? I would assume this painting of Young is to be found in one of the magazines for 1915, but I am not sure which one it is.

Stephenb Posted 18 June , 2006 Author Share Posted 18 June , 2006 Is Margetts' other degree 'ALCP'? I haven't been able to discover what it means, although he was a science teacher. This is the picture I have, taken soon after he was commissioned. Dave, here's a picture of Margetts. Enjoy ;-) Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephenb Posted 21 June , 2006 Author Share Posted 21 June , 2006 Hi Steve, Thanks for looking, aphotograph of his brother would help somewhat. Many thanks. Andy Hi Andy, it should help a lot (I hope) as I took it from a newspaper fiche, so very likely his parents used the same newspaper to publish an obituary.

stiletto_33853 Posted 22 June , 2006 Share Posted 22 June , 2006 Hi Steve, I know Reginald Hugh Lawson's award of the M.C. and his mention in despatches is in the Sidcup & District times and I believe a photograph as well. Presumably his brothers obit is also in the same paper, just have not had the time as of late to get there and check the papers, my silly season at work.

JOSTURM Posted 23 June , 2006 Share Posted 23 June , 2006 Peter, I can confirm, unfortunatley, that the picture isn't in the Illustrated London News. I'd suggest it was in The Sphere. I have a few volumes of this magazine, but not for the period you want. It has reasonably regular photo entries for officer groups (nearly always named). Steve Illustrated War News apparently, Steve Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zotiades Posted 7 July , 2006 Share Posted 7 July , 2006 Hi Steve Found your post after doing a search. Are you still offering look-ups? If so, would you be so kind as to see if there is mention of the following soldier: Lance Corporal GEORGE J JACKSON 4161, 2nd Bn, Leinster Regiment Died on 12 April 1917 Buried at Arras (husband of Martha Jackson of 13 Calmington Rd, Camberwell). I hope that's enough info to go on - would be ever so grateful for any help. Many thanks Athena Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost in Tilloy Posted 7 July , 2006 Share Posted 7 July , 2006 Hi Steve Do you have anything on the following 2 Officers who were brothers: Neville Harris Broadway Lieut 2nd Lancers KIA 1/12/1917 near Cambrai Hugh Alexander Broadway Lieut 15th Coy Royal Engineers DOW 30/03/1915 near Neuve Chapelle Could I ask also if the paper covers Other Ranks. I have 2 brothers mentioned on an Edinburgh Church memorial who lived, enlisted and served in 2 London Regiments and I just can't find the connection between where they lived and enlisted and the Church in Edinburgh. I'll only put their names on if you're happy to look them up. Regards LIT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alliekiwi Posted 17 August , 2006 Share Posted 17 August , 2006 Hi, Steve I'm fairly new to this forum, and only just found this thread. No idea if you do look-ups anymore. Just wondering if the Illustrated London News ever published photos of those from other forces? In my case, I'm looking for a New Zealander. Lieut. John Mackenzie 12/160 Auckland Infantry Battalion, NZEF DOW 22 February 1917 near Estaires Regards, Allie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
