“The men from Mobberley”
MOBBERLEY men who risked
their lives for King and country in the Great War have forever been
immortalised in their own dedicated history book.
To commemorate the
centenary of the First World War, resident Alistair MacLeod has created a
comprehensive booklet detailing the lives of many of Mobberley’s fathers,
brothers and sons who served.
The booklet tries to
identify all those remembered at Mobberley’s service of dedication held in 1921
and through whatever information has survived, provide a brief portrait of
where they lived and how they fitted in to village life before war was declared.
“I thought it would be
interesting to find out as much as I could about all those who served, whether
or not they survived, who had a connection with Mobberley,” said Alistair, who
first came up with the idea after helping organise Mobberley History Day last
November.
“This was the first war to
involve every community in the country; few households would have been
unaffected.
“In a community of only
323 households in 1911, 288 men linked to Mobberley served, of which 48 died.
Many of those who returned were deeply affected physically and
psychologically.”
The 57-year-old compiled
the booklet by consulting the roll of honour in the vestry at Mobberley’s
Parish Church, sifting through census and war records, and trawling through
Knutsford Guardian archives. He was also assisted by a number
of residents, who are decedents of those who served.
The production of the
booklet, titled ‘Remembering the men from Mobberley who went to fight for their
country’, was paid for by Mobberley Parish Council and distributed to every
residence in the village.
Around 100 copies of the
booklet are left and are available to purchase for £5. Anyone interested in
purchasing a booklet should call Alistair on 01565 872 871.
