Thanks McTalbert! What a gem.
How did you find it?

I am bury doing an exercise on the men from the Stanley/Burnopfield area who were killed in the Great War.

The picture of Arthur SUMMERSON is one of many I have collected as part of my research.

I spent over 10 years researching my family history and received help from many people who were extremely generous with their time. If there is anything I can help you with please let me know.

Thanks.
I saw the twitter page of servicemen who had died in WWI in the Illustrated Chronicle but not from 1917.
It is very tragic but a beautiful remembrance.

A photograph of Pte. A.G. SUMMERSON also appeared in the Illustrated Chronicle on 4th August 1916.

I am interested in contacting anyone who has any anecdotal history of her and her granddaughter Olive Maud Pickering Summerson.

Years later and i am not much further forward on what happened to Olive after 1927 (although it looks like she gave birth to a son Robert M Eastwood in 1939 at Durham NW).
I now know her exact date of birth (6 Nov 1899).
That gives nothing in deaths on FreeBMD so it looks like she died before exact birthdays were given on deaths at least on FreeBMD. She also doesn't appear on the 1939 register under her birthday, which seems odd. She married in 1922 Fred Eastwood and had 3 children in Durham/Newcastle area. It looks like there was also a 4th child born in 1939 (see above).
I think i traced her husband Fred who is in Newcastle City Mental Hospital, Gosforth U.D. as a patient, married in 1939. So why isn't she showing up on register if she was still alive in 1939?
I have tracked lots of false leads on possible deaths and second marriages for Olive and have run out of options.
It is a puzzle. I was hoping a living relative would solve it.
I am pretty sure this is her husband Fred.

The same Fred in the mental hospital definitely died in 1st quarter 1970 in Newcastle.
