Message from Avril Sanders Royle, Brownhill.
Beacon for the Centenary of the end of WW1.
A beacon will be lit on Sunday 11 November 2018 above the War Memorial in the field behind Rock House Brownhill Ruyton XI Towns SY4 1LR. Any offers of assistance gratefully received. I need people who are willing to help with the planning, such as publicity, risk assessment, building the beacon and marshals.
I am seeking any descendants of the fallen as a result of that conflict. According to the plaque in the memorial they are:
Samuel Braddock, John Brayne, Charles Cunningham, James Edwards, Edward Hanmer, Albert Haste, Benjamin Jones, Richard Jones, Harry Kilvert, Albert Lewis, George Morgan, Sydney Morris, John W Owen, Richard Sadler, William Stant, Edward Vow and Harry Walker.
There are 3 additional names who also should be listed: Charles H Hanmer, Ernest Lloyd & Alfred Rogers so I'm trying to find their descendants too.
I'd also be interested to hear about anyone's relatives from Ruyton XI Towns who served in WW1, especially if the descendants are local.
