SDGW Lookup please
« on: Friday 28 March 08 22:46 GMT (UK) »
Hello  :)

Could some kind soul do me a lookup for Henry Dickinson. I am expecting a link to Sheffield. His name could be spelt dickenson.

Thanks in advance

I'm afraid, I've just got a name at the moment. He definitely worked in Sheffield before or during the Great War.

Cheers Robert

I can find a Royal Engineer who died in 1921 from Doncaster but hes on CWGC not SDGW the SDGW of both spellings gives one born Keighley,Grantham,Bolton Percy Yorks,Nottingham so its a bit hit and miss without a regiment
He could have been Navy,Merchant Marine or Airforce?? or an officer??

Thanks for looking Ady, I think we'll have to put Mr Dickinson on a back burner for now. Maybe a visit to the Library will help identify him.

Heres another lookup request if you'd oblige.
Harry Guite, again I'm looking for a Sheffield connection. Could be Harold I suppose.

Cheers Robert.

 ??? what a frustrating night.

I couldn't find him on CWGC either.

there is this chap

Medal card of Guite, Harry
Corps Regiment No Rank
Royal Field Artillery 841 Gunner
Royal Field Artillery 790197 Gunner

The link you gave me doesn't work - however if its a link to Stannington Roll Of Honour - thats, actually my site, Which I thought had been down for the last hour or so.

Thanks for the lookups Ady.

Cheers, Robert
