Ghost Posted 18 March , 2008 Share Posted 18 March , 2008 Hi Malcolm, Any chance of a look up for Edward Grindley, Pvt. 62100. West Yorks Regt. Lived in Blyth. Thanks Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stebie9173 Posted 18 March , 2008 Share Posted 18 March , 2008 Can you check for Sgt. Herbert William Beeby, S/8772, 9th Black Watch, DoW 14-4-1917. The L&NWR Roll of Honour lists him as a Loco Cleaner at Camden. I suspect the general Roll of Honour won't have anything further, but.... Steve.

Malcolm Linham Posted 18 March , 2008 Author Share Posted 18 March , 2008 Steve, The book has less information than you provided, it only confirms Herbert Beeby as a cleaner. Malcolm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil2 Posted 1 June , 2008 Share Posted 1 June , 2008 Hi Malcolm - Thanks very much for checking. I found today that he's on the GER memorial at Liverpool Street but perhaps they also included men who had recently left the railways. Once more, many thanks. Neil.
