Hello,

I’m having trouble uploading the scans. If you can send me a private message with your email I can send them direct.

Best wishes,

Matt




Hello everyone.
An unexpected return to an old post! When I started this post in 1910 I was in the process of researching those men that I could find with a connection to Warehorne parish, and who died whilst serving in World War 1. William Bourne was one of these (although his name does not appear on our local memorial), and though I live in the parish, I am not a related to him. After the initial rush of information (hopefully), one does not expect to hear a great deal more as time passes. So the discovery of the postcard home from him is fascinating – something actually handled by William Bourne himself! If it is at all possible, Matt, it would be marvellous if you were able to send a scan of each side that I could add to my file on William. However, I quite understand if you would prefer not to. It is just nice to know that it exists.
Thanks to all who have helped me over the years,
Scobie
