Very definitely Simonstone. Locally they refer to the Ladies of Simonstone and the Women of Read, because Read was where the workers lived and Simonstone was where the posh people lived. (Think it's t'other way round now tho). Notice what?

My certificate came yesterday...told me nothing I didn't know. I'm well miffed. It was a death and I was hoping for next of kin or relationship details...at least something to confirm this man as in my tree...nowt. 
Has she noticed yet? |

Return of Warrant officers, Non-Commissioned officers and Men of - the 1st North Staffordshire Regiment Killed in Action or who have died whilst on Service Abroad - in the war of 1914 to 1921 Rgtl. or Army number - 7937 Rank - Pte Name - McCarthy John Age - 19 Country of Birth - England Date of death - 1/11/1915 Place of Death - 72 Field Amb: France Cause - Died of Wounds I was hoping it would have given more info that what I had seen on CWGC. No such luck. I believe this is the nephew of my Great Grandmother. I'll have to have a look in the local papers of the time to see if there is anything mentioned there. |
