  • Remembering the Men of Buckland St Mary Who Fought in WWI
    Buckland St Mary Mary Buckland St who fought in WWI Remembering the men of Vanished Lives Vanished VANISHED LIVES ROSANNA BARTON BUCKLAND ST MARY PARISH COUNCIL Futility In Memory Of The Brave Men Move him into the sun— Gently its touch awoke him once, Of Buckland St Mary At home, whispering of fields half-sown. Who Gave Their Lives Always it woke him, even in France, In The Great War Until this morning and this snow. 1914-1919 If anything might rouse him now The kind old sun will know. Think how it wakes the seeds— Woke once the clays of a cold star. Are limbs, so dear-achieved, are sides Full-nerved, still warm, too hard to stir? Was it for this the clay grew tall? —O what made fatuous sunbeams toil To break earth’s sleep at all? Wilfred Owen Base of the War Memorial in Buckland St Mary churchyard ‘From Buckland St Mary there went into HM’s forces about seventy men from a population of about 450. Of these sixteen joined voluntarily all the remainder, except those underage at the time attested under Lord Derby’s scheme …1 … On the outbreak of war several ladies of the village took a course of sick nursing and ambulance work and being thus qualified they did most useful work at the V.A.D.2 hospital at Ilminster. The women of the parish were organised by Mesdames Lance and Pott and met weekly for the purpose of making pillowcases and moss bags for splints, several hundred of which, were sent to a collection station.’ (The Western Gazette) 1 See page 7.

  • Scammell, Walter
    Cadet* Walter Scammell (Regimental Number 2958) lies buried in Cambridge City Cemetery: Grave reference, C. 3631.. *Flying Officer Cadet His occupation prior to military service recorded as that of a school-teacher earning four- hundred fifty dollars per annum, Walter Scammell was a volunteer of the Tenth Recruitment Draft. He presented himself for medical examination at the Church Lads Brigade Armoury* in St. John’s, capital city of the Dominion of Newfoundland, on July 3 of 1916. It was a procedure which was to pronounce him as…Fit for Foreign Service. *The building was to serve as the Regimental Headquarters in Newfoundland for the duration of the conflict. (continued) 1 It was to be twelve days following that medical assessment, July 13, at the same venue, before Walter Scammell would enlist. He was thus engaged…for the duration of the war*…at the daily private soldier’s rate of a single dollar to which was to be appended a ten-cent per diem Field Allowance. *At the outset of the War, perhaps because it was felt by the authorities that it would be a conflict of short duration, the recruits enlisted for only a single year. As the War progressed, however, this was obviously going to cause problems and the men were encouraged to re-enlist. Later recruits – as of or about May of 1916 - signed on for the ‘Duration’ at the time of their original enlistment. Only several hours were now to follow before there subsequently came to pass, on this further occasion still at the CLB Armoury on Harvey Road, the final formality of his enlistment: attestation.

    Parish of Friern Barnet St John the Evangelist and St James the Great Graves and Memorials of the Second World War John Philpott Act of Remembrance 11th November 2015, Friern Barnet Churchyard Graves and Memorials of the Second World War Contents Page Introduction 1 Parish Memorials 2 Scout Memorial 3 Walker Memorial 3 Second World War graves in Friern Barnet churchyard 4 Other graves in the churchyard with inscriptions commemorating dead of Second World War 6 Brief biographies of those commemorated 8 The cover picture is from Friern Barnet & District Local History Society Photographic Archive. ______________________________________________________________________ Parish of Friern Barnet Parish Office, St John’s Parish Centre, Friern Barnet Road, N11 3BS Introduction The church of St James the Great, probably dating from the 12th century, but rebuilt and enlarged in the 19th, was the original parish church of Friern Barnet. It stands in the parish churchyard in Friern Barnet Lane. As the population grew in the 19th and 20th centuries, new parishes were created: All Saints’ from the northern portion of the parish, St Peter-le-Poer to the south. The church of St John the Evangelist in Friern Barnet Road, completed in 1910, was built as a chapel-of-ease to St James’s, to serve what had become the main centre of population of the parish, near the Colney Hatch Asylum (later Friern Hospital) and the railway station. To make full use of the two church buildings, since 2009 St James’s Church has become the place of worship for the Greek Orthodox Community of St Katherine, with Church of England services taking place in St John’s.
