Duncan Posted 3 June , 2005 Share Posted 3 June , 2005 Hi, I’m researching a war memorial in Worcester and have come stuck on the following men. Could come kind person with a Soldiers Died CD Rom look to see if any of them have a Worcester connection i.e. born, lived or enlisted in Worcester. The memorial is St Andrew’s Church Worcester (The Glovers Needle) war memorial plaque, now inside the All Saints Church, Deansway, Worcester. If anyone’s interested I can email you the complete list and the details I have found of the other men. T. Bradley C. H. Burrows C. Clifford J. Davies S. Finch A. Harris A. J. Jenkins F. Jenkins A. Jones F Jones R. W. Kelly A. Oliver C. Roberts W. Turner J. Watkins T. Watkins W. Webb H. Wheeler W. White Many thanks, Duncan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve been a great help – thanks again. I think I must be the only person who’s looked at this memorial for decades! It’s nice to put a proper name to those listed. Even the church authorities weren’t that interested when I emailed them to say I’d give them my research! There are some real sad ones on it too, two brothers who died within a day of each other for a start! Can’t seem to find Pte 23561 Pte James Davies 15th Warwicks on the CWGC though? Thanks once again for your help. Duncan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
