galloway1 Posted 27 March , 2010 Share Posted 27 March , 2010 hello, my name is David Galloway and I am currently carrying out research on the servicemen listed on the Prestwich Roll of Honour with a view to publishing a local interest book. Amongst the names is J Ackerley, son of Francis and Elizabeth of Rainsough Prestwich who died on the 1st May 1917. There were two brothers, James and John and I am trying to establish which of them this is. Can anyone help? thanks David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
