Rededication of Pte. Thomas Daw's grave

The service will take place on Sunday 18th April at 11.30 am in Wellington Cemetery, Rockwell Green, Wellington, Somerset.
(for those wishing to attend and using Sat Nav's: TA21 9BS)

The after service 'get together' will be held at The Barley Mow, Rockwell Green, just 200 - 300 yards away from the cemetery, where light refreshments will be served. (Sat Nav: TA21 9DA)

For those wanting a more substantial meal before the return journey home, the Barley Mow has its own restraunt. However since the event has been well advertised and could be well attended, it might be a good idea to ring and pre book a meal if required (01823 - 665004).

A memorabilia table had been hoped for. The organiser (Tim Needham) has said that anyone else wishing to take their own pieces of memorabilia and share their knowledge would be most welcome.

The free paper The Metro has a small write up about it with a picture to accompany it. Try this link http://e-edition.metro.co.uk/2010/04/19/
If that does not work then goto the metro's web site and look under the e-editions for todays edition 19/4/2010, it's on page 14.
