Default Tower Hill Memorial

I'm on the scrounge for some photos of some names on the Tower Hill Memorials, if any kind person is going that way. They're for publication on a local history website so will need permission from the photographer for that too.




WW2
Coulson R., S.S. British Venture, panel 21
Tate J.H.K., S.S. Condylis, panel 31
Shearer A.L.P., M.V. Clifton Hall, panel 31
Davis T., M.V. Empire Statesman, panel 45
Brown J., (1) M.V. Empire Statesman, panel 45
Brown J., (2) M.V. Empire Statesman, panel 45
Robinson R., S.S. Eston, panel 48
Hastie J.L., M.V. Glenmoor, panel 52
Brown J.S., S.S. Medjerda, panel 69
and .............SS Togston, panel 108, all names, (8 of them)


Feretti G., S.S. Ottokar, (WW1 memorial)
Bain T., S.S. Ottokar, (WW1 memorial)
Coulson R., H.M.H.S. Llandovery Castle, (WW1 memorial)



any single photo anyone can manage I'd be very grateful.

Mike,

I can grab those for you. Is there a deadline?

Peter

Well done, PJ. I though that was on your home turf when I saw the request.

Regards,

Hi Peter, no deadline at all, don't go out of your way to do it, just if you find yourself in the area; but I'm very grateful anyway!

These are MN guys from my hometown, a number of which my grandfather worked with.

Yep, my manor, John. Couldn't turn down a great assignment like this; not that I ever need much of an excuse visit to a London memorial.

Cheers, mate,

Peter.

Hope this is allowed but maybe of use to members.
One of my fellow Moderators on the Sea the ships website has photographed every panel on the MN Tower Hill Memorial and has these available on his website.
He is always pleased to offer any assistance on via seatheships
