john w. Posted 12 January , 2005 Share Posted 12 January , 2005 Felix Powell wrote the music to this song after his brother George wrote the lyrics. Felix shot himself in 1942, but had been in the Great War. Anyone know of his service record? If not I may have to go to the PRO to find if it is there...

RichardW Posted 15 January , 2005 Share Posted 15 January , 2005 All I know is that he came from St Asaph. There was a very interesting programme about him on Radio Wales about a month ago. I couldn't find the programme on the BBC website, but there was a small piece about Felix Powell on the North East Wales page of the BBC site. I don't know if that's any help to you?
