ErnieNoakes Posted 21 July , 2004 Share Posted 21 July , 2004 Hi, I've just read your email. CSM Frank Bytheway was my great Uncle, the Local History Centre at Walsall is not far from me. I am prepared to visit and copy information from the Walsall Observer for people who are not able to make the journey. Regards, Ernie Noakes PS they didn't include 4 photographs with their reports but they did use an enlargement of the same photograph each time.
