Death and Service by Richard Cooper-Knight
November’s Bygone Days talk will take place in the month when we remember our fallen war heroes. Richard Cooper-Knight is an author, photographer and genealogist. His research into the service personnel behind the seemingly anonymous names carved into the Portland stone of more than 800 Commonwealth War Graves across Somerset, has led to a wealth of stories of family and love, life and tragedy; each name brought to life with their own individual history. The talk focuses on the stories behind those heroes who were laid to rest in and around the Midsomer Norton and Radstock areas.
