An interesting connection
As we research the Farnhill WW1 Volunteers we’re finding that many of them were connected – either they were members of an extended family; they worked at the same mill; or they shared leisure pursuits.
Recent research, yet to be confirmed, suggests that a woman called Ida Dawson was closely related no less than three Volunteers. It looks as if she was:
• The mother of Harry Walmsley
• The sister of John William Dawson
• The aunt of Walter Dawson
