The Memorial inside St Mary Magdelene Church commemorates four men from the village who died in the First World War. But the spelling of one name is wrong. George Avory Moore is actually George Avery Moor. There's also a question surrounding Herbert Neale. The CWGC lists a Herbert Neal (without an "e") and says he came from Whissendine. But no Neal appears on that village's War Memorial. It could be that Herbert Neale is the same person. Any more information gratefully accepted.
Do you know something about Essendine (St Mary Magdelene Church) that hasn't been mentioned? You can add any new information and images as a contribution at the bottom of this page. |
