Am ploughing slowly & painfully a quarter of the way through researching & writing biographies of all WW1 names on the Pirbright War Memorial, hopefully in time for the centenary. Any relevant family, local or military info gratefully received.
Hello Jonathan,
For some time I was the bookings secretary for the Brookwood Memorial Halls. During that time I began to research the names on the War Memorial plaque, which hangs in the Large Hall. I have discovered that the F. Webb on our plaque is the same as the Frederick Webb 2nd Leinster Reg. that appears on the Pirbright Memorial. I would be willing to pass on to you any information that I have discovered about him. At the same time it would be a great help to me if you have any information that you could pass on to me. Some of my research is already on the halls website.
Regards
Janet Stone
Janet, as I happen to know Mr. Foster, I shall mention your post to him next time I see him, just in case he hasn’t seen it.
Thank you Magicfingers, that would be a great help.
Janet
No problem Janet. I’ll let you know.
Hi Magicfingers.
I have made contact with Jonathan Foster, He discovered that we had a mutual friend. Thank you for passing on my message to him.
Regards
Janet
You are welcome Janet. I saw him late last week and passed on your message.
