brindlerp Posted 21 December , 2003 Share Posted 21 December , 2003 The 1915 Roll of Honour in "The Story of the Royal Warwickshire Regiment (Formerly the Sixth Foot) 1674 to 1920", by Charles Lethbridge Kingsford lists: Hamilton, Lt. T.K. 01/06/15 Payne, Lt. J.O. 25/04/15 as being in the 1st Battalion Royal Warwicks. I cannot find these two Lieutenants on the CWGC site with this information. Can anyone help me find them.

Terry Denham Posted 21 December , 2003 Share Posted 21 December , 2003 Payne is listed as John Oswald on SDGW. It is a possible scanning error on the CWGC database. I'll report it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Denham Posted 5 January , 2004 Share Posted 5 January , 2004 CWGC have confirmed that 'I.O.Payne' was an error and have now amended the initials to 'J.O.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Carter Posted 5 January , 2004 Share Posted 5 January , 2004 I have a copy of the book 'Bond of Sacrifice'. There is no info on Knox apart from date of death. However there is a photo and info regarding J O Payne. Do you want a scan of the page put on this thread? Regards Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
