The local Vicar in their village in Buckinghamshire refused to carry out the baptism because the young couple were unable to attend church on a regular basis. Linda was big hearted, generous and acted with Christian kindness by offering to carry out the service at St Ishmaels church. Bethan and Troy Kent and also Sophie together with two sets of godparents travelled down for the occasion. Linda made the service a very happy and memorable occasion and I believe we are very lucky to have a truly caring vicar who extended that care way beyond her parish.

History Project - Great assistance has been provided by Mr. Mike Askew who has a relative living locally who has trawled through the relevant websites to find information on all the men listed in the summer edition of Peninsula Papers. Three of the men on that list are not on the Memorial Hall plaque - William Morris, Claude Thomas and Sidney Davies. Can anyone advise why they were omitted? This information will be reviewed at the meeting on the 30th September, and it is intended to have the main details available in early November - see item below. Any further information on the descendants of these men will be very welcome. Fundraising - It is planned to hold a Coffee Morning on Saturday 9th November from 10am to 12 noon to raise funds for the Hall. There will be a Bring and Buy Cake Stall, and a Raffle and it is hoped that volunteers will come forward to help on the morning, and provide cakes and raffle prizes. On the morning also, information will be displayed about the men recorded on the Roll of Honour, and also about the role St. Ishmaels played during World War 1. If you have any memorabilia about the men involved, or about those who fought and returned please bring the items with you. We are also interested in any information about the events and celebrations that have been held in the Memorial Hall over the years.
