Bring along your World War One memorablia
I would like to tell everyone about an event taking place on Saturday April 6 at Williton Pavilion from 10am until 4pm (last entry 3.30pm).
The West Somerset Family History Group invites readers to bring along any items, objects, memorabilia or heirlooms which relate to, or have connections to the First World War.
We are taking part in a nationwide project being undertaken by the Commonwealth Wargraves Commission where we record the story of each object and then photograph it (Free Press March 15).
