Coates, Cambridgeshire: A One-Place Study

I have typed up and added the last news reports about the Coates war memorial.

It is too hot today!. I have made some slight changes to the site navigation and reordered the tabs a little.

Last night and this morning I uploaded two more sections of soldier information and news. I expect to compete the task in the next couple of weeks but there will be ongoing checking to do.

I went to the Peterborough Festival today although I also spent a few hours in the library when I went through the newspapers for 1920 and 1921. I was glad to find details of 2 men who had died after the war but as a result of illness acquired on active service. One of these died after the cut off date for CWGC recognition but the other died within the period although he has not been recognied (both are named on Coates War Memorial)

Phew!

There is a lot of work to do; I am getting through it gradually. I am not sure I have the Ellingtons right; there were several of them.

I have uploaded details of Coates soldiers whose surnames begin with a C.
