Our local paper (Great Yarmouth) has published the names and pictures of 1000 Norfolk servicemen killed  during the first WW.  Mrs One had a couple of relatives mentioned.  The suprising thing was just how many families lost multiple members.  There are at least 5 families that lost 6 children and there were at least 2 families that lost the husband plus up to 6 children.  In this day and age it is difficult to comprehend such losses - RIP
