“Our Boys”

I have recently enjoyed a delightful afternoon with a descendant of one of “Our Boys” and feel immensely privileged to have been given access to family stories and anecdotes, resources and research, even family artefacts.

As we move towards the Armistice Commemoration and the “Our Boys” Exhibition (10^th – 24^th November) I am seeking any descendants of the fallen on the Cockshutt War Memorial.
