Until yesterday, we didn’t know the the details of one of our Scouts on our War Memorial. However, a chap who has been researching the details of the people listed on the Wolstanton War Memorial got in touch with us as he’d been looking at ours as well and was interested in the memorial that had been put together.
He found the details of the missing Scout, Harold Bailey, in an old issue of the the Sentinel –
Sentinel 28th September 1918
Harold Bailey killed in action on the 25th March 1918 of the KOYLI eldest son of the late Charles Frederick Bailey of Porthill & Tunstall, he was aged 19.
So he was looked up on the CWGC website and there he was.
It’s good that we’ve found this last Scout, as they all deserve to be remembered properly by the current members of the Group.
