Soldier John Fay from Blackburn killed in service in 1944
Hi Everybody,
Just been looking through the "Lancs Live" newspaper, which incorporates the Accrington Observer, see address below:
https://www.accringtonobserver.co.uk/
There's an interesting topic in this week’s edition. A Dutch village called Haaren is looking for relatives of a soldier called John Fay from Blackburn, who was unfortunately killed whilst freeing the village from the Germans in 1944. For more details please look up the story on the internet.
I just thought that this forum might be of help to this particular village.
Cheers
Philip Kenyon
