  • 24 older comments, and then…
  • Niall McAuley said:
    I don't see either gentleman in the 1911 census (or the 1901 either!), so I suspect they may be visiting from Over the Water.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    Here is a Myles Ponsonby of about the right vintage.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    And that Myles had a brother, the Hon Bertie...
  • Niall McAuley said:
    If it is my Myles, he died in action in France, 28th of September 1915. That Bertie lived to be 82.

    Award of MC announced in the London Gazette, 26 September 1917, p. 9973: "Lt. Temple Percy Molesworth Bevan, G. Gds., Spec. Res." www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/30308/supplements/9973 MC Citation in the London Gazette, 8 January 1918, p. 587: "Lt. Temple Percy Molesworth Bevan, G. Gds., Spec. Res. For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. When left in charge of his company owing to the Captain being killed and the 2nd Captain being wounded, he displayed the greatest gallantry and disregard of personal safety in going to his support line, which was under heavy shell fire, and moving the men forward into the least dangerous position. It was owing to his prompt action that heavy casualties to the attacking troops were avoided." www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/30466/supplements/587

Private Llew Jones

  • Blueboy106 said:
    Which battalion of the Grenadiers? And for that matter they number their companies rather than give them letters. And I can't find him as a casulaty on the CWGC site.
  • Gary Donaldson said:
    Try 25203 Pte Llewellyn Jones of the Welsh Regiment, listed killed 13 April 1918? Another alternative being that this is one of the two Pte Llewellyn Jones who served in the Grenadier Guards; 26910 or 26766; both of who appear to have survived the First World War.//
  • Denise Jackson said:
    The list of UK Soldiers who died in the Great War shows his birthplace as Llanfairfechan, Caernarfonshire, Wales and place of enlistment as Ferndale (Glamorganshire?)
