Andy Wade Posted 30 January , 2018 Share Posted 30 January , 2018 We submitted Gunner Midgley's case for consideration on January 27, 2017, and we are delighted he's been accepted. I've added a transcription of the local newspaper's report on the 1916 coroner's inquest, to our blog here: https://www.menofworth.org.uk/events/gunner-gilbert-hardy-midgley/ We're now appealing for members of his family to come forward, if you know anyone who might be connect, please ask them to get in touch with us through our 'Contact' page: https://www.menofworth.org.uk/about/contact/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisharley9 Posted 30 January , 2018 Share Posted 30 January , 2018 Andy CWGC have informed that they have no evidence of his burial - do you have this please? Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Wade Posted 30 January , 2018 Share Posted 30 January , 2018 Strange, I thought we'd sent it all through to them and have a grave position for him which we confirmed with Bradford District Council's Bereavement Services. I'll PM a link through to you of my Dropbox folder with all the relevant documents for him. For now, here's the grave plan and listing for the grave in Utley Cemetery: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Wade Posted 12 June , 2018 Share Posted 12 June , 2018 Thanks very much for this Chris. We received notification from the Council Bereavements office that they had signed the relevant permission form a while back and we're now playing the waiting game for a headstone to appear.
