Description
NORTH COUNTRY NAVAL CASUALTIES... Two local men who have suffered in their country's cause are Ralph Havery, Gateshad and John McColl of Jarrow. Havery was serving on board H.M.S. Good Hope which, it will be recalled, was lost in an encounter with a German suadron off the coast of Chili some weeks ago. McColl who belongs to the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserves, is at present in interned in Holland. This photograph was published in the Illustrated Chronicle on the 26th of November 1914. During the Great War the Illustrated Chronicle published photographs of soldiers and sailors from Newcastle and the North East of England, which had been in the news. The photographs were sent in by relatives and give us a glimpse into the past. The physical collection held by Newcastle Libraries comprises bound volumes of the newspaper from 1910 to 1925. We are keen to find out more about the people in the photographs. If you recognise anyone in the images and have any stories and information to add please comment below. Copies of this photograph may be ordered from us, for more information see: http://www.newcastle.gov.uk/tlt" >www.newcastle.gov.uk/tlt Please make a note of the image reference number above to help speed up your order. -
