I was saddened that you picked up on the celebrity son, the golfer, to highlight and missed another one – a half relationship, I believe – who died for his country in the Great War. (What’s in a name? Somerville House, Sept. 26). You can find this fallen son of the mayor on the Virtual War Memorial project, run online only by Veterans Affairs. Just search the surname, look for Kenneth Ian and you will see his identity file, including a remarkable local honour roll that carries his name.
