Hi, I have been looking at the roll of honour for Cirencester soldiers who died in WW1, as you say this is a work in progress, I wonder if you could correct some errors in the entry for my Uncle, Thomas Cox 20398. At the time he joined the army he was living at 24 Chester Street, Cirencester, He was aged 21 when he died not 31. He was in the 2nd Battalion when he died having transferred at some point from the 1st Battalion. I would appreciate it if you could correct this entry. Wonderful work you are doing and much appreciated.
Wow, what a great Homepage Greetings from the Spa Hotel 🙂 http://www.stroblhof.com/
Excellent site….Bravo on your content
I am sorry I missed the post of Helen Tovey back in 2010. I would be happy to have her e-mail me. I have a portrait photo she might like to see of Henry Tovey, her great grandfather. He was born in 1841 and died in Cirencester in 1922. I also have a picture of my grandfather, Wilson G. Tovey shaking hands with Queen Mary in 1941. It is signed by her.
In my continuing research into the Captain Glenn Miller and his American Band of the AEF’s visit to Cirencester’s General Hospital of August 7, 1944, I found your site to be most informative and compelling. Blessings, Glenn Douglas Mittler 42614 Grandview Dr. Elyria, Ohio 44035-2106 U.S.A.
I was at the Fairford U.S. Military hospital in 1944. We took many trips to Cirencester from Fairford for a little R&R, dancing, drinking and conversations with the ladies. Many, many great memories. RB
On my recent visit to Cirencester, your exhibits were extremely interesting in all the details shown of what life daily life was, and to understand the reality of those times in Cirencester at that time and the enormity of what was at stake for all, and the communal efforts and sacrifices made. Thank you for the work you do.
Could you pass this message on to Susanna Gould who posted a message on 29/08. Wilson G Tovey was my great uncle. My father, Douglas Tovey’s father was Henry Tovey, Wilson’s brother. My father is nearing 100 and remembers Wilson and your mother Ruth. Do contact me. Many thanks.
My grandfather, Wilson G. Tovey (d. 1950), of Cirencester was active in supporting the American troops. His daughter, my mother, Ruth Tovey, married an American and settled in the States. I have my grandfather’s album. Thank you for all you are doing.
