Title: Herbert William Sibley born Pancras, London 23rd April 1889.
Post by: bigbazza on Tuesday 19 November 19 17:34 GMT (UK)

Hi,
I wondered if this badly damaged photo could be restored sufficiently, to show a clearer image of Herbert William Sibley.
Herbert was the grandfather of Charles Sibley who is a fellow member of "Wallasey Memories" on Facebook.  This is the only picture Charles has of his grandfather.
Herbert served in the ASC in France/Belgium in WWI and came through The War.  Tragically though, he was killed in an accident on the Dock Road, Wallasey in 1924 when he was run over by a horse and cart.
Many thanks for your help,
Baz.

Baz, any chance of a higher resolution scan? This is what I see when zooming in.

Hi Peter,
I will have to ask Charles and get back to you.
