War Memorial Names
The Newspaper Archive has just loaded a lot more newspapers including the Journal and Evening Chronicle. Picked this one up for J Ryan (memorial and West Cemetery).
Evening Chronicle, 30 December 1942:
"Sergt-Observer J. Ryan, RAF, VR, son of Mr and Mrs J Ryan of Lindisfarne Road, Amble, has been killed on active service. Aged 30, he was manager of Thompson's Red Stamp Stores, Woodbine Street, South Shields, before the war."
The paper has a photograph too.
