Some updates
I managed to visit the local library yesterday (daughter off at a Surf Lifesaving competition for the day - my turn to take her today - an extremely blustery and wet experience) and searched the archived newspapers for 1914-1916 (on microfilm). As a result I have updated the posts on William Currah, Percival Collins, Reginald Nankervis and Reginald Ennor. During the school holidays I hope to be able to obtain photographs from the Cornish Studies Library. Thanks to the wonder of Ebay I also obtained a postcard showing the building that used to stand on the site of the war memorial - will try to scan and post soon.
