    Ann...I think that being in the Warwickshire's 6th regiment is the only link to Aston that some of the men have, I have searched through the people with no known Aston address and I have found that the majority were in the 6th or 8th Warwickshire's, and properly based at Witton barrack's

    Aston Parish Church WW1 Memorial

    Ann, I think you may have an incorrect entry on the memorial, Charles Henry Pountney 13748, you have him living in Dolobran Road which caught my attention because I have never heard of that name before, so I checked it and found that he had no connection to Aston at all, But I did find another...

    Ann, I think I can give you the address for William Stacey, He was married to Emma Lily Tucker in early 1916, and the poor lad was killed in November 1916, I only have the address for Emma but I would expect that William could have lived there for a short while...Emma remarried and moved to New...
