Why should the tax payer keep these monsters. The children in question live with the memories for life that cannot be erased. Just do away with them in the worst possible way.

Reading this brings home the fact how lucky ones own family have been through life. So many deaths to contend with, terrible. The strength of parents through and through. To say "they are Gods' children and only lent to us" unfortunately does not lay well when one does lose a little one and this is when one can lose faith. I look forward to some happy times for the future coming family.  Although a great story it is one of the saddest I have read. A book for schools, it gives life as it was and might shake up this new generation. jess

Oh, Matt, they seem to have buried more than survived. They certainly never had as the saying goes, "luck of the Irish" beautifully told. Jess

Doing a great job here Matt. None of us know the suffering of our ancestors, life was tough for so many and yet they put on the uniform so we should have a better life, but was it worth it poor souls, all so young. Jess

A relation I found through a contact on Genes Reunited. He has been doing the Lifford tree for years and belongs to F.History. He does not have a computer and gets all his info by going to places where one would find it. We belong to the Liffords' of West Ham so Joseph would be a connection. My great great grandmother was a Lifford, Ann Caroline daughter of Daniel Lifford son of Daniel Lifford and so forth. I will keep intouch should he have any more to forward on. If you find how we connect let me know. Jessie
