Worcestershire | Drakes Broughton | War Memorial
| St Barnabas, Drakes Broughton Ordnance survey reference: SO 927485 War Memorial |
A carved wooden panel inside the church:
|
1914-1918 TO THE GRATEFUL MEMORY OF ALBERT BEECHEY GEORGE BROMAGE DANIEL EWINS FRANK FOSTER DOUGLAS NUTTING GEORGE FREDERICK STEPHENS 1939-1945 FRANK CLIFFORD HARLEY WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES FOR THEIR COUNTRY IN THE GREAT WAR WE HAVE DONE THAT WHICH WAS OUR DUTY TO DO REST ETERNAL GRANT TO THEM O LORD |
Notes:
There is an Albert Beechey listed on the Somerset Memorial as coming from Pershore:
since he is not listed on the Pershore war memorial, it seems a safe conclusion that the listing refers to the Drakes Broughton man.
Douglas Nutting of the Royal Marine Light Infantry is also listed on the Pershore war memorial.
