Chandler - East Retford War memorial
« on: Friday 23 October 09 07:13 UTC (UK) »
Hi

does anyone know a link on the net where I can see a list of names on the East Retford War memorial for soldiers killed in WW1. I am particularly interested in the surname of Chandler and Millington

many thanks

A list is available from Nott's Family History Soc.

But the deaths I've found of Retford residents are:-

Arthur Clark Chandler Died of Wounds 7 Sep 1915.

Leonard Chandler Died of wounds 15 Apr 1916.

Charles Millington Killed in action 3 May 1917.


There are more details should you need them.

Hi Skewy

all three are my relatives that I am currently researching. They were my great Uncles.  I would welcome any other info that you may have on them.

I will go and have a look at the Notts Family History site

regards

Hi Kaycee
