Ernest and Harry Lambert - Wiston War Memorial
« on: Monday 03 January 11 19:35 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

I'm trying to trace an Ernest and a Harry Lambert from the Wiston/Nayland area of Suffolk. They appear on the Wiston War Memorial as casualties of The First World War, but other than that I know nothing about them. Any ideas of possible candidates from the 1901 census (or elsewhere) would be much appreciated.

Oh thank you so much! My paternal grandfather's grandfather was the brother of Henry Victor Lambert so this confirms my suspicion that they are indeed connected to my tree! Very sad though, to lose both sons :(

Thanks again,
