Jacques Alexander BRAENDLI

[mlr0663]

Does anyone know anything about Jacques Alexander Braendli from 39 Sheep St, N'hampton.  A notice in The Gazette mentioning the company ~ Leather merchants and Factors run jointly by him and my Great Great Uncle Edward Allitt  was being dissolved and run in the new name of J A Braendli & Co, the notice was from Gazette of 23/6/1933.  Any info at all on this would be welcome

Thanks

Earlier this year, I purchased his Special Constabulary long service medal (Geo V, Jacques A Braendli). I have contacted Godfrey, his great grandson, to make contact with him as I'd be happy to reunite the medal with the family.

Hi Godfrey, I am trying to find information about your grandfather's brother, Corporal John Richard Braendli, for a special remembrance project at Uden War Cemetery in the Netherlands, where he was sadly buried.  He died on 31 Oct 1944. He was in the 1st Battalion of the Royal Tank Regiment.
I wonder if you have any additional information about him and particularly we are looking for a photograph of him for our Faces to Graves project as we are trying to give each man his own story and a face to the name to ensure they are never forgotten.  In time, and if we get enough photographs, a book will be written to commemorate each and every man buried there. Hope you can help.
