Hi & welcome.
To start with we will have to try and trace any family for his.
James Done,
Rank: Private
Service No:68947
Date of Death:28/02/1918
Regiment/Service:Royal Welsh Fusiliers 11th Battalion.
Formerly T4/072564, Royal Army Service Corps.
Grave Reference: D. 632.
Cemetery:SARIGOL MILITARY CEMETERY, KRISTON
Additional Information: Son of Mr. and Mrs. Done, of Salford; husband of M. E. Done, of 20, Hartington St., Regent Rd., Salford.
This is a good candidate for his marriage
Marriage: 22 May 1902 St Bartholomew, Salford, Lancashire, England
James Done - 25, Carter, Bachelor, 11 Duncan Street
Mary Ellen Makin - 25, Winder, Spinster, 13 Duncan Street
Groom's Father: George Done, Carter
Bride's Father: George Makin, (deceased), Packer
Witness: James Makin; Sarah Ann Done
Married by Banns by: G. W. Petherick
1911@ 9 Hartington Street Salford
Married 9 years
James Done 34 Head & Carter of coal
Mary Ellen Done 34
William Done 8
Arthur Done 4
Anne Done 8/12
So now we need to find out what happened to his wife, did she remarry? The children did they survive & if so did they marry?
I'll work on this later. Hopefully others will chip in?

From Kay Douglas
I am VERY grateful for the diligent research.
Do you think I should put a note in the Salford Advertiser asking for j Done family descendants? (The Medal has very little monetary value which may prevent opportunists responding).

Hi Kay, A note in the Advertiser would be a good move. Have you thought about trying Salfordonline also? |
