Hi there,

Feel free to take a look at our website and use anything from there: http://derbyshirewarmemorials.wikispaces.com/

Good luck with your work!

Hi Scritch

Thanks for your note, just had a look at your website and must say it is a great one. I have been collecting War Memorials, War Graves and Monumential Inscriptions for a few years now and a couple of years back decided I had too many not to share. Found Great War Forum and love adding to it now, they do a great job too.

Keep up the good work. At least if we all "do our bit", the memories will never fade.

All the best

Hi MH

Re Owen William Parry that you have on the Alderley Edge memorial. Everything that I have points to that particular Owen Parry being linked to Bangor, Caernarfonshire including a book written shortly after the War. I note that when you have a doubt you state 'unable to find correct etc' Do you have anything about him and Alderley Edge that I may update my file? I'll send you what I have if you want.

(The canadian casualty has links to Cheshire albeit the bit that is now the Wirral)

Hywyn

It's probably a bit late and I don't know if you monitor replies to this thread, but I have further information on private Parry and his family if that is of use to you.
