Please can anyone explain to me what the critera is for soldiers who died in the 1st world war to have their name listed on this memorial. My great uncle Christopher William Dilloway is listed there however my Grandfather Reginald John Dilloway (his brother) was not, and yet they both died as soldiers during the first world war

Found this post about John Prujean nephew of Isaac Sarjeant. My great great grandfather Patrick Byrne owned the adjacent property at Denlair Wanganui. (Isaac was his neighbour) I have an old land map dated about 1865 which shows the residents in that area.

Surrey / Guildford, Thomas Dilloway
« on: Tuesday 20 April 10 10:20 BST (UK)  »


Thomas Dilloway b. 20 Oct 1856  M.1 Ann Nash on 25 Sept 1879. M.2 Elisabeth Funnel nee Nash (sister of Ann Nash) Thomas and Ann had the following children:

Ethel Jane b. 1880, Thomas Alfred b. 1882, Annie Mabel b. 1884, William Christopher b. 1885, Mary Daisy b. 1887, Reginald John b.1899, Elsie Carrie b. 1891.

Thomas and Elizabeth had the following child: Ivy Kathleen b. 1904.

Elizabeth was previously married to ? Funnell and had the following children:

Dorothy G b.1888, Bertha Lillian b. 1889, Margarie b. 1890.

In the 1890’s Thomas Dilloway was living with his family at the Guildford Park Post office, Denzil Road Guildford, Surrey.  Thomas son Thomas Alfred died as an infant. Son Reginald John died in India 1889 and had one son Reginald Clifford. William Christopher died in France during world war 1 (1918).

There are three questions that I have had a lot of trouble answering as it is difficult for me to gain access to archives from New Zealand.

Did William Christopher Dilloway marry and have children?
Did Elizabeth Ann have any sons in her marriage to ? Funnell?
Did Ivy Kathleen Dilloway marry and have any children?

I would truly appreciate any help or advice as to how I may find answers to those questions.

Gloucestershire Lookup Requests / Re: Isaac SARJEANT 1823-1908

While searching for my great grandfather Patrick Byrne I came across a survey map showing the Early settlers of Wanganui in New Zealand. Isaac Sarjeant was my great grandfathers neighbour in Delair which is close to Fordell a small village close to Wanganui. The map dates about 1850. I have this scanned this map and can email to anyone interested.

My Partner is trying to find her grandmother or her descendants. Her grandmother married twice. First marriage she had 4 children. Now comes the tricky part...During World War 2 it seems that her husband was away at war and she met another man. To him she had twin daughters born May 1945, they were given their father's surname. She was unable to care for the twins and sent them to Keffolds  Barnados home in Surrey. At this time she was living in Merton. When the twin's father returned from the war he collected his twin daughters and brought them to live with him.

Does anyone know of any records that would show the residents of the Banardos home in Keffolds,
Bunch Lane, Haslemere, Surrey during the years 1945 -1947?

On the twins birth certificate the adress given for the parents was 22 Botsford road, Merton, Surrey NE, does anyone have access to records that would show who was living at that address in 1945?

Any help or advice would be truely appreciated.
Sincerely
Reg Dilloway
