herbie4798 Posted 20 November , 2009 Share Posted 20 November , 2009 Hi all, Im looking for the Death plaque to Richard White Williams. He was a 2lt in the 1/10th London Regiment. He DOW 16/8/15 as a result of his wounds sustained on the 15th at the attack at Kidney Hill Gallipoli. I know it was sold beggining of this year or end of 2008. If anyone knows the wherabouts or has it please get in contact. I would dearly love to re-unite with his Victory medal. If anyone knows where his 1915 Star/BWM are also that would be an added bonus. Best regards James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best James hope you locate the plaque & medal, question: did they issue the plaques to all causualties??

Jim Strawbridge Posted 24 July , 2010 Share Posted 24 July , 2010 question: did they issue the plaques to all causualties?? I was under the impression that due to lack of metal they stopped issuing the plaques at some time during the latter part of the war News to me and very unlikely. So far as I am aware the next of kin of ALL casualties were provided with a memorial plaque and scroll. I don't think that memorial plaques were issued DURING the war to cause the metal shortage that you suggest. I have certainly seen memorial plaques issued as late as 1926.

Michael Johnson Posted 29 July , 2010 Share Posted 29 July , 2010 And at least in Canada were awarded to men who died as late as 1922. Which probably means that there is a "She Died" plaque out there for N/S Caroline G. Greene, who also died in 1922. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
