I have recently been doing family history; this is so amazing to me we share this same Great Uncle George. I had no idea my Grandfather Tom (Thomas Barlow) had 2 brothers until recently; one being your Grandfather's brother.
I feel very honoured to have been invited by the Mayor of Wolverhampton to lay a wreath at the cenotaph at St. Peters Church on 11th of November 2018 in memory of our Great Uncle to honour him and the many men and women of Wolverhampton who lost their lives 100 years ago.
