burlington Posted 23 September , 2004 Share Posted 23 September , 2004 Not according to Barry Cuttell, 148 Days on the Somme. They were involved in fighting around Thiepval Ridge, Schwaben etc but not on the Ancre. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dorrie Posted 24 September , 2004 Author Share Posted 24 September , 2004 Chris Would it be possible to give me the actual website address as I am having difficulty locating it Thnaks Dorrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_Hartley Posted 4 October , 2004 Share Posted 4 October , 2004 Dorrie Click on the link in my signature below. You'll find Merryweather on the Cheadle Hulme War Mmeorial. Can I ask what's your interest in him? By the way, he was kIA in 1916, not 1918 ( was this a typo?) By the way, Chris knew of my website as he took a photo for me of the Retford War Memorial which also has Merryweather on it. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorrie Posted 5 October , 2004 Author Share Posted 5 October , 2004 Thanks for information John. Yes it was a typing error. My interest in Charles Merryweather is that I am carrying out some research with regards to pupils who attended King Edward School and who died in the Great war Dorrie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
