Nick Saunders Posted 19 January , 2004 Posted 19 January , 2004 Dear Forum Members I am assisting two authors who are researching the men commemorated on the war memorial cross in Lymington on the south coast of Hampshire. The information gained will be published in a book which will be sold to raise funds for the Royal British legion. A similar book written about the war dead of Brockenhurst, in the New forest raised £1000 for the Legion. Does anyone have any information or better still any pictures of the following Hampshire Regiment soldiers, that they would be willing to let us publish in the book. Private Charles Edward Carpenter 9575 died 4.7.15 1st Hants Private A Clarke 32487 died 25/4/17 12th Hants Private Edgar Robert Darlington 23423 died 21.2.17. 2nd Hants Private E C Elliot 331037, died 3.5.17 1/8 Hants Private Ronald Ford, 305171 died 21.1.16 1/4 Hants Private Charles Henry Gates 306137 died 14.10.17 A coy 2/7 Hants Private W J Haines 305484 died 28/2/19 ('flu?) 1/7 Hants L/Cpl Earnest Hart 305060 died 25.10.17 1/7 Hants Pvt F H Holloway 15255 died 2.7.16. 1st Hants Pvt.

Marc Thompson Posted 19 January , 2004 Posted 19 January , 2004 Nick, Whilst I do not have any photo's of the soldier's named I may be able to assist with some other information. If you can drop me an e-mail off forum with brief details of what information you have obtained thus far then I'll attempt to fill in some gaps. Regards Marc
