Pte. John Joseph Hague
32 Mottram Road
Gee Cross
I have been contacted by one our our regular contributors 'Eric', who contacted me this week and asked if there was any chance of posting some information on the blog. After reading Eric's message and what it was about I had little choice in the matter. Thanks for the nudge Eric.
Eric
has been
researching a
relation
who was killed at Ypres in February 1916. Upon
contacting
the Commonwealth War Graves Commission Eric
found
that his
relation
is listed on the Menin Gate which his
son and himself
are
visiting very
soon.
However
the main thing he
wanted to see mentioned on the blog, was
the name of the chap next to his
relation
on the Gate, a
Pte
John Joseph Hague No. 28582 15th Bn Royal Welch Fusiliers, who
Died
31st July 1917, age 38.
Husband
of Alice Maud Prestwich (formerly Hague) of 32 Mottram Old Road, Gee
Cross, Hyde. Eric was hoping I wondered if anyone could throw a light on this man's family.
Good to see you back Tom, it was like history itself had stopped for Hyde just lately! Missed the regular informative features posted. Aware of the health issue which makes the Blog a stop/start process and appreciate commitment you put in ....

I can't shed any light on Private Hague but God bless him.
