Armed Forces / Unknown Soldier 3 /Sailor?
« on: Sunday 08 October 06 12:52 BST (UK)  »
Can anybody identify this man's uniform,please?

I have some info on this man,he was known as 'COL',but this is possibly from his surname.
He was in Jaffa in June 1936-the old city.He was also in Malta(year unknown)
He was near the dead sea.He was near the 'monastery mentioned near Jericho,in the wilderness where Christ is supposed to have wandered'
The Legionaire was called Buchanan.
The photo with an X  said on the back that it was demolished Police Barracks and the X marks where his room is/was.


Thanks for any help,Andy

Can anyone tell from this photo where it might be,when it was taken and what sort of people they are?I have my own ideas where it might be based on who owned it and where some ancestors came from,but I could be completely wrong!!

Moderator Comment: If anybody can help, then please put your replies on the topic on the Yorkshire (West Riding) Board, to avoid duplication of efforts. Thanks :)

Cheshire / Where was Monks Coppenhall ?
« on: Sunday 11 June 06 13:23 BST (UK)  »
I've got a birth certificate from 1856,the registration district on Cheshire BMD was Crewe,the District was Nantwich,the sub district was Wybunbury (whoever filled it in put Wybinbuy,so I'm guessing at Wybunbury) and the Address was Lawrance st,Monks Coppenhall.

I can't find it on Auto route.There is a Coppenhall Moss but its too far North,and there are streets called Monks..... and Coppenhall......... around the Crewe area.
Can anyone tell me for definite where it was?

Thanks,Andrea


there is a Lawrence street 1 1/2 miles from Coppenhall Moss,
and Genuki says Monks Coppenhall was in Nantwich Hundred (SJ 7056), anyone know what those numbers mean?
