On 22nd April 2021 we were contacted by Edwin Henry Ford’s grandson, Laurence Ford, who sent us the following message:
“I wish to say thank you for looking after my Grandfather’s war grave which I do visit at least once a year. My grandfather being E.H.Ford. Additionally I am impressed with the information you have put on the website about all those local servicemen who lost their lives in World War 1. Should you want a picture of E.H. Ford to add it to his piece I can send one”.
“Just as a point of interest he is also remembered on the Holsworthy war memorial along with 2 other family members“
