Hi all I wondered if anyone has a connection to the HALL family mentioned below I have a pocket bible from WW1, sadly not connected to my own family but something that was left in the garage of a previous home in Leicestershire It has "The Soldiers Bible" printed on the front cover, size 9cm x 13.5cm x 3cm thick, black or very dark blue covers, on the inside of the front cover is "A Soldiers Prayer" There is an inscription inside from the soldier to his son in 1916, from research I now know he was Samuel Maurice (or Morris) Elijah HALL 67009 of the 1st Btn Sherwood Foresters sadly I found he died 31st July 1917 (and have accumulated much on the family now) Also inside is "Supplied for Public Service" with a Crown above it, it was printed by Horace Hart : Oxford, Printer to the University The poignant inscription reads "From dady to master George Harry HALL. my son and God bless his little heart Oct 4th 1916" George Harry was then 3 years old The CWGC shows Samuels parents as Michael and Rachael HALL, S M E Rank: Private Service No: 67009 Date of Death: 31/07/1917 Age: 30 Regiment/Service: Sherwood Foresters (Notts and Derby Regiment) 1st Bn Grave Reference XXIX.
