Some of the names are recorded in the Cardiff City Corporation Roll of Honour and other names I found online at Ancestry.co.uk. There are a total of 156 names, 131 within the Glamorgan Archives area, with another 20 names outside of this area. I have also found 5 officers whose details I managed to locate. Some names had very little information other than name, rank, regiment and town of birth. The majority of my research has been online in order to find the information that follows. Some of the names have revealed an interesting hidden history of information, whereas other names did not reveal very much at all. This research isn’t by any means complete, and I hope there are members of the public who can contact the Glamorgan Archives to continue the ongoing process of updating this data. ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ The 16th (Service) Battalion (Cardiff City), Welsh Regiment was formed in November 1914 by the Lord Mayor and Corporation in Cardiff. It then moved to Colwyn in December of the same year to join the 140 th Brigade of the 43 rd Division. On 29 th April 1915 it become part of the 115 th Brigade of the 38 th Division and in August moved to Winchester. The Battalion mobilised for war in December 1915 and landed at Havre. It was then engaged in various actions on the Western Front, including The Battle of Albert 1916 and the Battles of Pikem and Langemark in 1917. The Battalion was disbanded on 7 th February 1918 in France. I have included within the Appendices section, a transcript of the 16 th Battalion’s War Diary at the time of the Battle of Mametz Wood. ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ Mametz Wood was the objective of the 38th (Welsh) Division during the First Battle of the Somme. The attack occurred in a northerly direction over a ridge, focusing on the German positions in the wood, between 7 th July and 12 th July 1916. On the 7 th July, the men were halted by machine gun fire before they reached the wood. Further attacks by the 17th Division on 8 th July failed to improve the position. Another attack on the 10 th July was on a larger scale than had been attempted earlier. Despite heavy casualties the fringe of the wood was soon reached and some bayonet fighting took place before the wood was entered and a number of German machine guns silenced. Fighting in the wood was fierce with the Germans giving ground stubbornly. However, by 12 th July the wood was effectively cleared of the enemy. The Welsh Division had lost about 4,000 men, killed or wounded in this searing engagement. It would not be used in a massed attack again until 31 st July 1917. The wood still stands today, surrounded by farmland. Overgrown shell craters and trenches can still be made out. 3 4 Part l Enlistment areas within the Glamorgan Archives Jurisdiction 5 6 Enlisted: Cardiff Name Birthplace Regt No Date of Death Page

  • Crossing the White Line: the Walter Tull Story
    CROSSING THE WHITE LINE: THE WALTER TULL STORY written by Peter Daniel research by Phil Vasili design by Camilla Bergman ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Written by Peter Daniel Original research Phil Vasili Illustrations Ted Smith-Orr Front cover mural Jonathan Boast Design Camilla Bergman Westminster Archives is proud to present the life story of Walter Tull, which would not have been possible without the £49,900 grant we recieved from the Heritage Lottery Fund. As an organisation we are committed to celebrating diversity and this funding has allowed us to bring the story of a Great Black Briton to the wider audience it deserves. We would also like to acknowledge the help of Tull biographer Phil Vasili. Without Phil’s tireless years of research on the Tull story this project would not have been possible. We extend our thanks and gratitude to Marilyn Stephenson-Knight from The Dover War Memorial Project, whose energy and enthusiasm helped bring the project to Folkestone, the Finlayson family for their generosity in allowing us to use their collection and a special thanks to all the staff who worked with us from NCH (National Children’s Homes), The Methodist Central Hall, The National Army Museum, The National Football Museum, Glasgow Rangers, Crabble Corn Mill, students from CAPA and also to the PFA for supporting this project.

  • Using Historical Sources to Investigate Black History What Evidence Do Historians Use? Historians Try to Find out What Happened in the Past
    Using historical sources to investigate Black history What evidence do historians use? Historians try to find out what happened in the past. To do this they need to piece together what happened from the clues that survive. Historians call these clues sources. Historical sources are something that tells us about history. It may be a document, a picture, a sound recording, a book, a cinema film, a television programme, or an object. Anything from the period in question that conveys information can qualify as a source. You are going to look at two sources from the National Archives that help you answer the enquiry questions below. Enquiry questions: Who was Walter Tull? How can we use sources to find out about him? What can he teach us about what happened in the past? Walter Tull was born on 28 April 1888 in Folkstone, Kent. His father was from Barbados and his mother from Kent. His parents died when he was aged 9 years old. Walter and his brother were brought up in an orphanage in Bethnal Green, East London. From 1908 he started to play football and was signed by Clapham FC, then the following year by Tottenham Hotspur F.C. He was the second person of African-Caribbean mixed heritage to play in the top division of the Football League. He later moved to Northampton Town F.C. in 1911 where he played half-back. At the start of the First World War Tull joined the 17th (1st Football) Battalion of the Middlesex Regiment as a Lance-Corporal. In 1915 he served in France and was later placed in hospital for shell shock.
