  • Blakeney WW1 Casualties Pamela Peake
    Blakeney WW1 Casualties Pamela Peake Every year Blakeney, like many villages, towns and cities around the country, remembers the sacrifices made in both World Wars by men whose names are inscribed on village memorials. Who were they? In this study an attempt has been made to collect the names of all who served in WW1, with greater attention being paid to the casualties and it is this group that are considered here. This has not been an easy exercise as the names on the memorials are surnames with initials; nationwide the majority of memorials provide Christian names which makes identification easier. Additional confusion has come from errors introduced during the preparation of the memorial inscription when initials were sometimes transcribed incorrectly. However, one surprising result of this study is the recognition that not all the names of casualties for Blakeney appear on the memorials, both on New Road and in St Nicholas Church. Various accounts of the casualties have appeared over the past six years either in the Glaven Valley News or the BAHS Newsletters . At the same time display boards have appeared in the church with similar information plus photographs and details of the battles where individuals were killed. By September 1914 out of a population of 708 for the village, newspaper accounts show that 80 men had volunteered, by January 1915 this number had risen to 145 and over the next four years it would rise even higher. So there could hardly have been a family or house in the village that emerged untouched from the war. There are 39 known casualties for Blakeney and detailed records have been completed for 38 of them; these form the basis of the following account.

The intention at the outset was to include photographs of all men who had served in His Majesty's Forces during the war, but the difficulty of gathering together 2,000 photographs was found too great to be overcome, and as an alternative it was decided to confine the photographs to those who had paid the supreme sacrifice. This has been done so far as these were available. From the ranks of the S.C.W.S. Employees there went forth 2,075 men. These were to be found on every front, on land, sea, and air, and right worthily did they uphold the honour of their Country. Words cannot describe the trials and hardships endured by these men while on service, not the least amongst them being their anxiety as to how the dear ones at home were faring.

  • Bourne Abbey Church TF 097 200
    Bourne Abbey Church TF 097 200 © Wendy Parkinson The WW1 Roll of Honour is wall mounted inside the church of St Peter and St Paul, Bourne. It consists of a dark coloured wooden box with 2 opening half doors, however these doors are now stuck in the open position. The box is shallow in depth and is oblong shaped, with the long sides mounted vertically. Two half doors are hung on the box, one to each side of it. At the bottom of the box is a lip which protrudes out from the background and sides but which would be flush with the doors if they were shut. Beneath this is a plain wooden oblong of the same wood as the box, and beneath that a small shelf which at the time of recording held a small metal vase. Above the box is a shaped section of identical wood, both edges of which slope slightly outward, and above this a triangular section and upon this is written, in gold lettering, 'For God, King and Country'. Above this section is a inverted V shaped roof arrangement which ends just beyond the outer edges of the triangular section beneath it. There is a metal cross in the centre section of the box, the words 'Greater love hath no man than this' are written in red above the horizontal arm of the cross, extending to both sides of the vertical arm. There are names recorded upon the left half door, black lettering but with the first letters (and initials) in red, the centre section below the horizontal arm of the cross and to each side of the vertical arm of it and the right half door.

  • A History of the 1St Battalion, the Somerset Light Infantry (Prince
    A HISTORY OF THE 1st BATT. THE SOMERSET LIGHT INFANTRY (Prince Albert s), From July, 1916, to the end of the War. A HISTORY OF THE 1st BATTALION The Somerset Light Infantry (PRINCE ALBERT'S). July 1st, 1916, to the end of the War, BY Major V. H. B. MAJENDIE, D.S.O. (Somerset Light Infantry). <ZTatmton : GOODMAN AND SON, THE PHOJNIX PRESS, NORTH STREET. 1921. INTRODUCTION. The story contained in these pages gives the reader a detailed account of the part the ist Battalion took in the Great War between the opening of the Somme offensive, ist July, 1916, and the Armistice, nth November, 1918. It is written by Major Majendie, D.S.O., who com- manded the Battalion throughout that period, and to whose leadership the Battalion owes so much. It was not originally intended for separate publication, but was written as matter for the Regimental History when brought up to date. Unfortunately there must be a long delay before the Regimental History can be brought out in a form worthy of the Regiment. Those officers who read Major Majendie's manuscript considered it a pity to let it be laid aside for possibly years, and he was persuaded to publish it. I feel sure that all those interested in the Regiment will approve this course, and I know that they will find the volume of absorbing interest. T. D'O. SNOW, Colonel P. A. Somerset L.I. Sept., 1920. INSTRUCTIONS AS TO THE USE OF THE SQUARED MAPS. 1. The large rectangles on the map, lettered D, E, F, etc., are divided into squares of 1,000 yards side, which are numbered I, 2, 3, etc.
