Hi Jim, see grave registration documents for this man:

https://www.cwgc.org/find-records/find-war-dead/casualty-details/400606/a-t-tillett/

Staff Nurse Winifred Mary Jackson QAIMNS, died 16/11/1918. Death registered at Croydon, age 24. Buried at Mitcham (Church Road) Burial Ground, plot 10, grave 29.

[Jim Strawbridge]

Paul, I wonder if you have solved a long-time mystery of mine. The York Minster panels has a listing which I had assumed was "auxiliary hospital" casualties although there is no heading. Included there is W.N. Jackson. It seems that your W.M. Jackson was originally recognised as QAIMNS before the CWGC discovered their mistake and she was taken away from their recognisation as a war grave. Perhaps she was but had resigned before a death that was non-war related. But she must have been on their radar for a reason so wonder if she could be the same woman.

[Jim Strawbridge]

Just bringing the updated outstanding photograph requirement forward.

What do you still need here Jim?

What do you still need here Jim?

AINSDALE, Stella Rose Boue-Blandy, QAIMNS, I have photographs of her name on the Ainsdale War Memorial and on the Roll of Honour in Ainsdale Crongegasional Church. I have since been informed that her name is on a memorial in St. Johns church, Liverpool Road, Ainsdale.

BOLTON, Ellen Allison, civilian, died (with her husband, James) from a bomb blast on the 26th September 1916. She was believed to have been buried in Tonge cemetery, Cemetery Road, Tonge Fold, Bolton but has yet to be found there. Possibly unmarked.

INCE-IN-MAKERFIELD, error on my part. You kindly took the photograph of the grave of Maggie Barnes in Ince-in-Makerfield for me. Since that date the CWGC has adopted her grave I thought that they might put one of their headstones there. Her current headstone is sufficient so that will not happen. Now taken off my list.

MANCHESTER. Having difficulty in finding my requirement here. It means trawling through hundreds of possibilities. It is probably a newly commemorated VAD.

TURTON. Mary Jane Mellody, VAD, died 15/1/20. She is buried in plot 65, St. Annes churchyard, Turton.

TYLDESLEY. Mary Alice Marsh, VAD. You have already kindly photographed her unmarked grave at grave 287, row CE, plot C, Tyldesley cemetery. The grave was adopted by the CWGC in 2018. They will place one of their grave markers there but uncertain if this has yet been done. It still shows that she is entered in their book of rembrance so I think that her gravemarker is still outstanding.

[PaulC78]

What happened with Florence Jane Settle at Manchester Southern Cemetery? I had her in my notes as an IFCP case, but I don't see her name on the current case list, or on CWGC. Do you know if she was rejected?

I have heard nothing since February 2019 when she was being considered. I guess that she didn't make it although she seemed a strong candidate. Perhaps Terry Denham will know.

[PaulC78]

Checked with Terry, she was rejected last year, insufficient evidence of death related to service.
