Thank you that's great.  I haven't got round to checking newspapers yet.  Am currently researching all the men on the Holy Trinity, Finchley memorial. :)

Definitely looka like Fius but I'm sure you're right and that makes sense.  Thank you  :)

World War One / PoW location

According to the grand guerre website, Rifleman 608520 Frederick George Webb, London Rent was captured at a place called Fius - but I can't find this on a map.  Does anyone know if this is a place?

It also mentioned a town called (Laz) Valenciennes but I think that's the location of a hospital he was treated in (which I have found on a map).

Essex / Monumental Inscriptiion

I have been trying to help someone looking for a burial at my local cemetery (via Find-A-Grave) but unfortunately the burial records for St. Marys, Runwell were destroyed in 1953. 

Apparently Essex Family History Society have transcribed some of the headstones.  Does anyone have a copy of the CD and could check the details for me:

Horace Britton Laverack, died 30 October 1952

Thank you. :)

Can anyone confirm the street on the attached death certificate? The closest match I can see is Swinnerton but I'm not completely sure.  Thank you.
