  • Centenary WW1 Victoria Cross Recipients from Overseas
    First World War Centenary WW1 Victoria Cross Recipients from Overseas www.1914.org WW1 Victoria Cross Recipients from Overseas - Foreword Foreword The Prime Minister, Rt Hon David Cameron MP The centenary of the First World War will be a truly national moment – a time when we will remember a generation that sacrificed so much for us. Those brave men and boys were not all British. Millions of Australians, Indians, South Africans, Canadians and others joined up and fought with Britain, helping to secure the freedom we enjoy today. It is our duty to remember them all. That is why this programme to honour the overseas winners of the Victoria Cross is so important. Every single name on these plaques represents a story of gallantry, embodying the values of courage, loyalty and compassion that we still hold so dear. By putting these memorials on display in these heroes’ home countries, we are sending out a clear message: that their sacrifice – and their bravery – will never be forgotten. 2 WW1 Victoria Cross Recipients from Overseas - Foreword Foreword FCO Senior Minister of State, Rt Hon Baroness Warsi I am delighted to be leading the commemorations of overseas Victoria Cross recipients from the First World War. It is important to remember this was a truly global war, one which pulled in people from every corner of the earth. Sacrifices were made not only by people in the United Kingdom but by many millions across the world: whether it was the large proportion of Australian men who volunteered to fight in a war far from home, the 1.2 million Indian troops who took part in the war, or the essential support which came from the islands of the West Indies.

  • JAMES BELL CRICHTON VC (1879-1961) Soldier
    HIDDEN GEMS AND FORGOTTEN PEOPLE JAMES BELL CRICHTON VC (1879-1961) Soldier James Bell Crichton was born at Carrickfergus on 15 July 1879. Before emigrating to New Zealand he served with the British Cameron Highlanders, and saw active service in South Africa. He enlisted in the 1st New Zealand Expeditionary Force on 22 August 1914 and embarked for Egypt in October of that year as a Corporal in the N.Z. Army Service Corps. He served on Gallipoli from October to December, 1915, and left for France in April, 1916, as a Company Quartermaster Sergeant. In April, 1918, while serving as a Warrant Officer with 1st N.Z. Field Bakery, he voluntarily relinquished his rank and transferred as a Private to the Auckland Infantry Regiment. He won his Victoria Cross for conspicuous bravery and devotion to duty near Crevecoeur, France, on 30 September 1918. His citation reads as follows. "Although wounded in the foot, he continued to advance with the troops, despite difficult canal and river obstacles. When his platoon was subsequently forced back by a counter-attack, he succeeded in carrying a message. This involved his swimming a river and crossing an area swept by machine-gun fire before he subsequently rejoined his platoon. Later, he undertook on his own initiative to save a bridge which had been mined, and although under close fire of machine guns and snipers, he succeeded in removing the charges, returning with the fuses and detonators. Though suffering from a painful wound, he displayed the highest degree of valour and devotion to duty." (London Gazette, 12 November 1918).

The Executive is busy planning for the AGM that will be held on the 22nd Sept in the Anzac Lounge. The advertisement for this year’s AGM was in this week’s Hutt News, and a repeat of the same ad will be in next week’s edition. The executive have confirmed the cut-off dates for Notices-of-Motion, and the nominations for Executive Officers. LHMRSA currently holds elections annually, for the Executive Committee, who need to have been members of the LHMRSA for at least two years prior to nomination.

  • & New Zealand Ulster
    Ulster New Zealand &Migration, Interaction & Legacy Ulster New Zealand Ulster New Zealand & & Introduction Blow winds blow, and speed us on to Auckland, New Zealand is an island country in the south-western Pacific Ocean. The Bright land that lures us so far away from home, distance between Belfast and Auckland, the largest and most populous urban Blow ye winds and soon we’ll reach New Zealand, area in New Zealand, is 11,192 miles. Thus the title of Donald Harman Where peace and plenty awaits us, each and every one. Akenson’s ground-breaking book on the Irish diaspora in New Zealand – Half the world from home: perspectives on the Irish in New Zealand 1860-1950 Written by Thomas Ritchie, aboard the William Watson, Christmas 1859 (Wellington, 1990) – is very appropriate. The first European explorer to visit New Zealand was Abel Tasman, the Dutch seafarer and explorer, in December 1642. Captain James Cook, who reached New Zealand in October 1769 on the first of his three voyages, was the first European explorer to circumnavigate and map the territory. From the late eighteenth century, the country was regularly visited by explorers and other sailors, missionaries, traders and adventurers. In 1840 the Treaty of Waitangi was signed between the Crown and the Maori chiefs, bringing New Zealand within the Empire and giving the Maori equal rights with British citizens. Although the Dublin University Magazine in 1845 described New Zealand as ‘the most recent, remotest, and least civilised of our colonies’ and the most expensive to reach (over four times the cost of crossing the Atlantic to America), there was extensive British settlement throughout the rest of the century.

No part of this publication may be reproduced, stored in a retrieval system, or transmitted in any form, by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopying, recording or otherwise, without the prior permission of the Ulster History Circle. Published by the Ulster History Circle ULSTER HISTORY CIRCLE ANNUAL REPORT 2006 – 2007 Introduction This is the first new-style annual report of the Circles’s operations intended to draw together the main strands of its activities in the preceding year. The Circle The Circle is voluntary organisation that places commemorative plaques all over Ulster, to honour of men and women who have contributed to its history. The Circle was set up over 20 years ago. It has no earning capacity or trust funds of any kind. Unlike similar UK bodies, who receive generous government grants, the Circle has to depend on Local Authorities, individuals and businesses to fund individual plaques. The general rule is that a proposal to put up a plaque is not considered unless the person to be commemorated has been deceased for at least 20 years - less if the deceased person was born more than 100 years ago. The blue plaques draw attention to the association of a building or a location with an individual who has distinguished him/herself in some manner. This encourages local communities to identify with the person concerned, encourages local pride and often stimulates associated activity such as summer schools, festivals, lectures, commemora- tive events, general tourism.
