Guest mruk Posted 8 August , 2006 Share Posted 8 August , 2006 I paid a visit to Farsley yesterday and made a list of the men who died. It's a nice little place on the outskirts of Bradford and Leeds, and the people in the local shops and Post Office were extremely helpful. A million miles, it seems, from the other side of Leeds where I live. Please bear with me, though, while I type in the namesby individual panel [6]: "In Honour of the Men of Farsley Who Gave Their Lives in the Great War" "Eternal Honour, Give to Those Who Died" "Erected by Public Subscription June 1921" John T. Anderson J. Eric Appleyard Harry Atkinson Lewis S. Bailes Ewart Bannister Herbert Bannister Morris Barran Leonard Barrett Milford Binns William W. Booth Carleton Busfield Morris Busfield Percy Busfield Harry Butler Edgar Calvert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mruk Posted 8 August , 2006 Share Posted 8 August , 2006 There are a number of common names inscribed, and it seems likely there is a family connection in some cases. However, I'm wondering if anyone knows what the abbreviation "JAs" means which forms the first part of the name of "JAs" William Moorhouse? Kind Regards, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mruk Posted 8 August , 2006 Share Posted 8 August , 2006 Thanks Dave, It hasn't been a complete waste of time. I'm looking for men who served with the 10th West Yorkshires. It's a good job I didn't decide to type the names of all the men listed on the Pudsey Cenotaph. Cheers, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
