Download or read book Bridgnorth in the Great War written by Christopher W. A. Owen and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2019-12-27 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This social history of WWI explores the wartime sacrifices and contributions made by the people of this charming, historic English town. The town of Bridgnorth, located along the Severn River in Shropshire, is a popular tourist destination known for its historic castle and unique funicular rail system. Though it is steeped in military history, much of its role during the Great War has remained obscure until now. Misled by government propaganda, many of Bridgnorth’s men enlisted in the military for what they thought would be a short-term adventure. Their commitment and fortitude in the face of bloody trench warfare gives testament to the incredible bravery of the people of Bridgnorth, and their losses are evidenced in the various commemorative monuments erected throughout the town and surrounding hamlets. Utilizing contemporary documents and wartime servicemen's poignant letters, some of which are disclosed here for the first time, Bridgnorth in the Great War reveals how this once prosperous and industrious West Midlands' town endured great sacrifice in the name of Britain’s war effort.

In June 2010, it was the 21st such reunion and the meeting was held in Parlors Hall, Mill Street, Bridgnorth. A recent DNA study has shown that the Preen family is divided into three main groups. The one we call the "Bridgnorth Group" has as its common ancestors Frank Preen and his wife Fanny who lived in Mills Street, Bridgnorth during the seventeenth century and so lived through the Civil War and the siege of Bridgnorth castle. Some of their descendants lived in Bridgnorth while others moved to Birmingham or the Black Country.
