Lots of Hattons but not your man. I have a ww1 pair to John Charles Le Pellem Hatton. He was a major and a Chaplain. It would be interesting if they were related.

regards.

Tom,

Another one bites the dust. Hatton is a common nmae, but I'll let you know if I discover a link. Curious thing for me is that I lived in Dorset Road between the ages of 11 and 20.

Just out of curiosity...where are you getting these names from? Are they related to you?

If you make up a complete list I will do them all at the one time.

Hi Chris

They are not there.

I also checked just in case Milholland was in as Mullholland.

Tom,

A few months ago a fellow pointed you out to me at a Medal Society of Ireland event. He said: "That fellow is museumtom from the Great War Forum." At the time, not having had any previous contact with you, I said something like "o.k."

Next time he points you out, I'll buy you a pint! I am very grateful for the time and trouble you took on this. It's information for which I'd been searching for sometime.

Many thanks,

Kind regards,

Philip

[museumtom]

See you Saturday week so at the fair in the North Star Hotel, Amiens Street from 10 o/c.. Buying me a pint is very much appreciated but not necessary( I will be driving). I am glad to help and I will bring a readout with more details of these men with me. I am not takling a table but going for a good old 'rummage' and to talk absolute drivel with fellow enthusiasts............you know what I mean.

Tom.

[oak]

Thanks Tom,

That's two pints I owe you --- and the price of a taxi home!!!!!

Kind regards,

Philip

Thanks in advance. As always, your consideration is appreciated.
