title: Post card from Fred Lynn to his mother (3)

description: Fred had been in hospital in Southampton 

He wrote
"Dear Mother Just a few lines to say I am out of Hospital and am quite well. I received your letter the other day and was pleased to here [sic] from you and to know you was quite well. I shall be back to the Batt. in a few days so you can send my letters there.
Well I must close, from your everloving son
Fred xxxxxx"

This is one of the last cards in her album from Fred. He was killed in action in September 1918.

Fred Lynn's story
Fred's story is told here through a number of photographs and post cards that he sent to his mother. She kept them in an album, together with those from his brothers and sisters.

Frederick Lynn was the sixth of 7 surviving children of Sarah Ann and Christmas Lynn. Fred was born in 1896 and brought up in Gedney Hill in south Lincolnshire. 

Fred and his brothers Robert and John went to Lincoln to enlist in April 1916. 
Robert was not accepted. I don't know if this was because he was not fit or because he was now the head of the household (his father had died in 1915) or because he was a farmer.
Fred enlisted in the Notts and Derby Regiment of the Sherwood Foresters. He became a Lance Corporal in the 15th Battalion and was wounded in 1918. 
He was in hospital in Southampton in May 1918 but was discharged and returned to his Battalion. Tragically he was killed on 29th September 1918 and is commemorated on the Memorial at the Tyne Cot Cemetery in Belgium and on the war memorials in his home village of Gedney Hill.

Fred's brother John Lynn also enlisted but I have no photographs of him and very few postcards to his mother. John survived the war but died in 1918, perhaps in the flu pandemic.

title: Great Western Railway locomotive 5322 (5)

description: Served in France 1917 - 1919, now preserved at Didcot Railway Centre.  Possibly the largest surviving Great War artefact is right here in Oxfordshire. She is Great Western Railway locomotive 5322 which was built in October 1917 and sent when new to France, along with other members of the class, to haul supply trains between Calais and railheads for the front line.

The locomotive is nearing the end of restoration to running order, and because of her Great War service is being painted in the khaki livery of the ROD (Railway Operating Division) with white lettering ROD and her number 5322 on the tender.

Photograph 17 May 2008 5322 turntable shows the locomotive on the turntable at Didcot Railway Centre on 17 May, partially painted.

Photograph 25 June 2008 tender shows the ROD 5322 lettering newly applied to the tender on 25 June.

Photograph 5322France1918 is a picture of the locomotive in France in 1918. The letters 5322 are just about visible on the tender. Note the RCL (Ravitaillement Calais - Ligne) board on the bufferbeam.

Photograph 5319 is another member of the same class in France.

I have also submitted a Word file  with the text of an article written by C E R Sherrington in 1973. He served in the Railway Operating Division in France during the Great War and described an encounter with 5322 in France. He died soon after writing this article, which was published in the Great Western Society's magazine, Great Western Echo. I was editing the magazine at the time, and met Mr Sherrington in 1971.

5322 has already been completed mechanically, and steam tested, so the painting is the final part of her restoration. Within a few weeks she will be a working representative of all those British locomotives that were sent to France, and other theatres of the Great War.

title: Driving Licence of Walter Powell (2)

description: This is the civilian driving licence of Walter Powell, dated 26th May 1915. Although eligible for only 12 months this is the only licence Walter carried until he gave up driving because of ill health in the early 1990s (aged over 92). He was a driver (cars and lorries) and a motorcycle despatch rider during the First World War - he passed tests and examinations to qualify him for this, as recorded in his father's diaries (also part of this collection).

Part of a collection relating to Walter H. Powell, Llandrindod Wells, (private / driver M2-267205 Mechanised Transport Army Service Corps). Born 1898, Walter tried to join up under-age on a number of occasions, finally succeeding in 1916. He served many months - (more than 2 years?) - in different army units in Britain, before going over to France. He served as a despatch rider for an anti-aircraft battery in 1918-1919. Walter was gassed "suffering the effects all his life". He was a founder member of Toc-H in Llandrindod, and a keen footballer - he died in 1994 aged 96. However Walter's older brothers (Cliff and Percy Powell) and his uncle (Humphrey Powell) died of wounds sustained during the war.
