Soldiers of Hyde ProjectPosted on 13:13, November 1st, 2014 by Site admin
Under the auspices of Hyde 900 there is a project afoot to research and document the lives of the soldiers of the First World War who are commemorated in St Bartholemew’s Church. Apart from Regiment, Rank and Age, the intent is to explore the stories behind the names, to bring to our very comfortable and peaceful lives in Hyde today, a concept of the community during this time. If you are interested in joining a working party; enjoy research – ably assisted by Alys Blakeway and would like to take part in what promises to be a fascinating task, with an excellent group of ‘ Hydeites’ please contact Caroline Scott on 01962853997 or e mail [email protected] or [email protected] Equally if anyone has any information on any of the soldiers who so sadly did not return, all leads are welcome at this initial stage. |
