Welsh WW1Prisoners in a POW camp This is an item of interest to anyone who had a relative who was taken prisoner in the Great War. I have a photo of 23 prisoners from Wales taken in a POW camp in Minden, Germany, during 1918 and someone on the list may recognise one of these as one of their relatives. My grandfather's brother, Thomas Williams, from Penmachno, was a tailor with H R Davies, Abergele Road, Colwyn Bay, when he enlisted in December 1915. He was injured in August 1916 and came back for hospital treatment but returned to France again in 1917 only to be shot and captured during the Battle of Cambrai at the end of November 1917. He was taken to a POW camp in Minden and I have a number of photos taken inside the camp. The most remarkable photo is that of 23 prisoners with the caption "Some jolly boys of Wales". This postcard was sent to my mother, aged 9 at the time, on 18 May 1918. I assume that this card was also sent to at least 22 other families in Wales. The photo can be seen by visiting http://blogs.caernarfonherald.co.uk/hywelroberts/ where you can also read more about Thomas Williams in the Great War. Does anyone else have a copy of this postcard? Does anyone recognise a relative in the photo? Hywel Roberts
