I have been tracing my family tree and discovered that my grandfather, Oliver Draper, was killed in the First World War and is remembered on the Ash War Memorial. Great thanks to the Museum at Ash for placing the pictures of it on their website. I will be forwarding this image to the Wiltshire Regiment Museum, based in Salisbury, as they have asked for all archives connected to my grandfather.
Regards
Sue Itzinger
I’m not entirely sure what you mean by “I shall be forwarding this image”, Sue? Could you explain?
