  • 1 Private Henry Charles Crane (Regimental Number 1405) Is
    Private Henry Charles Crane (Regimental Number 1405) is buried in Doullens Communal Cemetery Extension Number 1 – Grave reference: I. B. 7. His occupation prior to military service recorded as that of a railroad worker and earning a monthly one-hundred dollars, Henry Charles Crane presented himself for medical examination in the Conception Bay community of Harbour Grace on April 7, 1915. It was a procedure which was to pronounce his as…Fit for Foreign Service. (continued) 1 Having by that time travelled to St. John’s, capital city of the Dominion of Newfoundland, he enlisted two days following his medical assessment, on April 9, at the Church Lads Brigade Armoury on Harvey Road where he was engaged at the daily private soldier’s rate a single dollar plus a ten-cent per diem Field Allowance. It was now to be a further ten days, the date April 19, before he was to undergo his attestation, to swear his Oath of Allegiance, the concluding official formality. At that moment Henry Charles Crane became…a soldier of the King. *A second source has him attesting on the day of his enlistment. There was now to be a lengthy waiting period of nine weeks less a day before Private Crane, Regimental Number 1405, was to embark onto His Majesty’s Transport Calgarian on June 20 in St. John’s Harbour and sail (almost*) directly to the United Kingdom. He was one of the two-hundred forty-two men of ‘F’ Company and eighty-five naval reservists to take passage on that day. (Right above: Naval reservists from Newfoundland, during the early days of the Great War, before their departure for the United Kingdom - from The War Illustrated) Where Private Crane was to spend the interim between his attestation and his departure on…overseas service…is not clear – and is not documented among his papers.

  • The Earliest Evidence of Acheulian Occupation in Northwest
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The earliest evidence of Acheulian occupation in Northwest Europe and the rediscovery of the Moulin Received: 5 December 2017 Accepted: 19 August 2019 Quignon site, Somme valley, France Published: xx xx xxxx Pierre Antoine1, Marie-Hélène Moncel2, Pierre Voinchet2, Jean-Luc Locht1,3, Daniel Amselem2, David Hérisson 4, Arnaud Hurel2 & Jean-Jacques Bahain2 The dispersal of hominin groups with an Acheulian technology and associated bifacial tools into northern latitudes is central to the debate over the timing of the oldest human occupation of Europe. New evidence resulting from the rediscovery and the dating of the historic site of Moulin Quignon demonstrates that the frst Acheulian occupation north of 50°N occurred around 670–650 ka ago. The new archaeological assemblage was discovered in a sequence of fuvial sands and gravels overlying the chalk bedrock at a relative height of 40 m above the present-day maximal incision of the Somme River and dated by ESR on quartz to early MIS 16. More than 260 fint artefacts were recovered, including large fakes, cores and fve bifaces. This discovery pushes back the age of the oldest Acheulian occupation of north-western Europe by more than 100 ka and bridges the gap between the archaeological records of northern France and England. It also challenges hominin dispersal models in Europe showing that hominins using bifacial technology, such as Homo heidelbergensis, were probably able to overcome cold climate conditions as early as 670–650 ka ago and reasserts the importance of the Somme valley, where Prehistory was born at the end of the 19th century.

  • 148 'Je Suis En Australie': a Personal Memoir of Villers-Bretonneux
    148 ‘JE SUIS EN AUSTRALIE’: A PERSONAL MEMOIR OF VILLERS-BRETONNEUX ANNE BRASSART 1 ‘I am in Australia!’ Those were the words we screamed as children when stepping with delight on the thick lawn of the Australian cemetery in Villers- Bretonneux. Under the vast sky, blue or grey, here was ‘Australia’, here was immensity, here was freedom. On the soft green turf, we could run and run, first to the centre of the lawn where the tall stone cross stood, supporting an impressively big sword, point down. We would climb the very high steps leading to the foot of the cross and then we would go on as far as the majestic tower dominating the Memorial. It was a race to see who would reach it first. But we never went inside. It had been damaged during the last war (1939– 1945), and was unsafe. Behind the tower, at the far end of what was for us ‘Australia’, there were no tombs but big bushes which were ideal for playing hide and seek or other games that did not require anything but running and sometimes singing. Lots of delighted children’s laughter rose to the sky! We knew that the Mémorial was a burial place for the Australian soldiers, and also some from Canada and New Zealand, but because it looked more like a park, and was not at all a sad place, we did not think of it as a cemetery. The vastness of it, especially for small children, and the open fields all around it, sloping gently down to the valley of the Somme, gave us an exciting feeling of liberty.
