Bob Coulson Posted 18 September , 2003 Share Posted 18 September , 2003 Been using the new CWGC search facility for my local WW1 men buried at home. The CWGC site has now got two men who are not in the register-hard copy. They were not listed in the update recieved from Terry a while back, just wondered how this would happen.? Bob.

Bob Coulson Posted 19 September , 2003 Author Share Posted 19 September , 2003 Terry, Eston Cemetery is the one and the men are Private William Edward Charlton of the Yorkshire Regiment and Corporal Charles W Lilley of the Royal Engineers. Eston is North Riding of Yorkshire. Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Denham Posted 19 September , 2003 Share Posted 19 September , 2003 Bob Before seeing the names, I had worked out nine possible causes of this. The actual answer proved to be number 1! I turned over two pages when typing out your copy of the Yorkshire Update. These two casualties now appear in the completed master copy - simple as that. The two men were names added after the publication of the North Yorkshire CWGC register in 1930. They had originally been left out due either to late notification or to clerical error. Sorry to confuse you. Must have been tired or over refreshed. You get that way cross-checking 170,000 names! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
