“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.
