New ahead of Remembrance Day tomorrow - Chiesman Brothers' "Paris House" roll of honour and the men from this prominent Lewisham firm who died in WW1 longlazylewisham.wordpress.com/2024/11/09/chi…

The main roll lists 143 men who had worked at Chiesmans and served in various capacities in the war, mainly in the army. Photos of 11 men who died are also displayed.

You can now find over at the other place (you know, the one where the skies are bluer 😉) under the same handle. I'll be plugging away here for a while longer, but the other place is looking good so perhaps give it a go! 😁 If not, I'm also on Insta! #blueskies
