Hello
My name is Andy Johnson, I have been researching the men of Tipton killed in the Great War for about 15 years and have recently loaded this research to my new website: http://www.tiptonremembers.net. There is still much work outstanding, especially adding photographs.
I’ve been told that members of this forum have ‘found’ my website and are using it to add to their genealogy researches.
This is a use I had not anticipated, but I am delighted that you have found it of some use. I just wanted to say that you have my permission to use the data in this way, not that you need that permission on the ‘wild-west’ internet! It is nice that it is being of use.
This project is my contribution to the centenary of the Great War and although many people have contributed information, generally about their relatives, it is basically ‘all my own work’. Any errors are down to me and I would be delighted to correct any you may find.
The site is my copyright work and therefore, as you will understand, wholesale ‘lifting’ of my work is not approved, however feel free to make use of the data for the individual casualties. A reference back to my site is always nice. I have no other websites or social media sites.
Happy browsing!
Andy
PS I am not a genealogist and won’t be a regular here, but the ‘Contact Us’ on my site does work if I can help.
