Hi @AnnieH55,
I just discovered this thread. My great Uncle, Pvt. Leslie William Woodward (31330 Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry), was killed in 'France and Flanders' (precise details are not known) on 23rd August 1918. He was baptised at St Peter & St Paul on 23rd April 1899 and lived at 59, Porchester Street.
I assume that his parents did not respond to a request to have his name included on the memorial. I would very much appreciate it if you would consider including his name in your 'version 2' of the men who gave their lives in that conflict.
My father, who was born on 24th August 1920, was given the first name Leslie in his memory.
Attached is an image of the 'Dead man's penny' given to his parents George and Ann Sarah Woodward.
