Roll of Honour
« on: Wednesday 20 September 23 12:25 BST (UK) »
 This is a long shot question. I came across this information regarding Roll of Honour for Sydney Desmond Titterington and, I am curious to know whether he was related.
It's not a common name, but drew my attention to it.

 The only connection to Australia was my Grandmother and her family who went to Australia in July 1927.Sadly they passed away.

Most of my Titterington ancestors were from Lancashire. Thank you very much for this information.

Thank you for the information. I don't think he is an Ancestor as I can't seem to make the connection.
