    Williams Clive Private 57334 1/8 Royal Warwickshire Regiment

    I want to extend a very big and very grateful and very loving thank you to all those wonderful, kind, and helpful people on here, over the years, and more recently, who have shown me such generosity of spirit. As time passed by I grew ever more concerned about the 100th commemoration of The...

    Thank you, Astoness, you are very kind. If I could find a photo of Clive I would search no further, I'd just like to look him in the eyes

    Thank you for sharing that - not much for a life. I can only imagine that his mother might have kept that money to one side as the last tangible thing she had of him. Thank you and for your kindness x

    Tomorrow, 20/11/18, is the 100th commemoration of the death of Clive. I know that someone out there knows about Clive, has a photo, his medals, his memory. Please, I just want to see a photo of him. I will, until my last day, continue to honour Clive's memory. RIP

    As this amazing day of commemoration itself becomes a refrain carried in the wind, I must say that the BBC has done an excellent job today. I wish to extend my grateful thanks to everyone on this site who has directed and assisted and advised me since I first came here in my search for Clive...

    I've no idea how to link a person's name on this forum but I would like to extend a very public thank you to Terry Carter for his kind help and information. Like so many of us on this site and others like it, my only determination is to keep alive the spirit of those who died

    THE END OF WW1 WE SALUTE YOU ALL

    Last week I visited the grave of Private Clive Williams for the first time. While looking for his grave I actually remember seeing the name BUFFERY - I cannot promise it was William, but a small world.

    However, isn't it wonderful that PatHayward has provided a photo, and one that features her late father-in-law, who was in the 1/8 Royal Warwickshire Regiment. He probably new 57334 Clive Williams. I know, I feel it, there is a photo out there somewhere. Someone else still honours his memory...
