![]() "Nick Cooper 625" wrote in message om... As an appendix at the back, Gillham names 45 people killed in the WW2 Bank station bombing on 11/01/41, and states that 57 people were killed in total. My own researches have come up with _46_ people killed in the incident itself, and ten dying in hospital over the following days/weeks, making 56 in all: http://www.cwgcuser.org.uk/personal/...wcafa.htm#bank I can't justify forking out £35 just to solve this anomaly, A shame, as it's an excellent book, and IMHO the high price is more-than justified by the amount of research that the author has put into it. but if anyone already has a copy of the book, could they compare the 45 listed by Gillham with the initial 46 I have to see who he missed? I suspect it may be the Home Guard, Frank Wilcox. I'm slightly confused by the way your site has laid them out compared to Gillham, but for clarity here's the complete list:- Barritt, Kate (49) Beagles, PC Arthur William (25) Beckett, Florence Elizabeth (48) Beckett, Ernest William (58) Blackby, Augustus George (59) Blake, Peter Cecil (17) Block, David (62) Bond, Royston (34) Brown, William Charles (45) Cavanagh, Edward John (54) Fosh, Ronald Walter (14) Free, Robert William (48) Gates, Arnold George (35) Gates, Shelia (5) Goodwin, Charles Alfred (16) Gregory, Alice (41) Gregory, Corrine (14) Griffiths, William (70) Hall, Benjamin (39) Heard, John George (33) Josephovitch, Abraham (32) Josephovitch, Bernard (28) Kappes, Ellan Elizabeth (15) Katz, Celia (24) Krise, George Ernese (27) Lawrence, Harold Alexander (39) Leyserman, Ada (28) Roast, Harry (16) Swayer, Stanley Philip (18) Siverstein, Morris (57) Smart, Albert Victor (45) Smart, Grace (43) Smith, Alice Augusta (68) Smith, Edward Julian (47) Smith, Louisa (46) Sole, Charles Arthur (17) Soley, Bernard Henry (18) Such, Emanuel (18) Travitz, Jack (44) Tulloch, David (61) Waldron, Charles Henry (30) Wells, Alice Maud (62) Wilcox, Frank Edward (17) Winsky, Rene (14) Ziff, Hannah Fanny (60) In the accompanying text, Gillham says "There were actually 57 fatalities, the other 12 were probably unidentifiable or else Forces Personnel and these would be recorded elsewhere."
