… came home after WW1. Tom was my paternal grandfather and a very quiet man. Coming from an isolated village and a very Victorian family, going to war must have been quite a shock and only once did I hear him talk it. His father-in-law Joe (on the right) had been in the army for 20 years and came out in 1913 (having served in Northern Ireland in the 1890s and the Boer War, only to re-enlist within a year. He became a PT instructor, training young men before they went to the front. The missing person is Harry Dallow Price, who didn't return. He was my mother's uncle who served in the Canadian Army and was one of the thousands missing in action, just aged 19. When I moved, I lost his photo somewhere along the way but he is always in my mind on the 11th November.
