Now, now, GB! That's not nice! Although I know how you feel.

Reggie, it's quite possible the poster has been back several times to see what has been added, but just hasn't bothered to mention it.

It really doesn't take long to say "Thanks".

I have ancestors from Croyland/Crowland. They are the same place and at some point the spelling changed, but I'm not sure when.

Names search.
There are two names on this memorial that I would like to know more about.
I have tried Commonwealth War Graves website, with no luck. The local council have not answered my email enquiry.
The names are Private Thomas A Hall
Sergent John Hall MM
I don't know if the period covered is WWI or WWII
Can anyone out there tell me where else to look
