hamleysaredon Posted 4 September , 2009 Share Posted 4 September , 2009 For the last three years I have been researching the life of my Great Uncle Thomas Noden who was sadly killed in WW!. When starting to find out about his death it was disappointing to find that he was not listed on the CWGC site. After collecting evidence about his service and death I submitted it to the CWGC for his name to be included. Yesterday on the anniversary of the outbreak of WW2 I received a letter from them to say that the Ministry of Defence have approved his commemoration and his name will be engraved on the Pozieres Memorial in addition his details have now been included on the CWGC website. In Memory of Lance Corporal THOMAS NODEN 46600, 4th Bn., North Staffordshire Regiement who died age 27 on 26th March 1918 Remembered with honour POZIERES MEMORIAL Cathy.

Terry, I submitted his details to the CWGC site earlier this year with supporting evidence of Red Cross letters, death certificate, service record (one of the lucky ones to survive in the 'burnt papers') so am very pleased to have achieved his inclusion on the memorial. I had help in some of the research on his war record from members on this site and wanted to record his inclusion on here. Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
