Thank you to the 'Love Woodside' group who remember our wartime veterans each Anzac  and Remembrance day.

Julie Reece Tours is looking forward to resuming the Connecting Spirits Community Tours in 2022 subject to meeting all international and quarantine regulations associated with the management of the Covid situation. Aligned with this project, I am seeking to contact any Woodside residents and their networks, who are related to any of the Woodside WW1 soldiers buried overseas. If your family relative in on the following Honour Roll of those who died in the war, please contact me to request their inclusion on the 2022 Connecting Spirits’ soldier list of those we research and commemorate at the grave or memorial to the soldier. If you request their inclusion in the CS project, a brief biography of their wartime service will be published on this blog as previously completed for H. Mitchell, and the Clashom brothers. Depending on the location, the 2022 tour group will endeavour to visit their grave or memorial on your behalf with their story published on the Connecting Spirits website. (www.connectingspirits.com.au )

The East Brothers have been previously commemorated by the Connecting Spirits project and their stories can be read on the soldier page on the CS website. 

If you or your family have any private details and sources other than the public service records and want them included in the soldier’s story, please let me know. I can be contacted via email at: julie@juliereecetours.com.au.

The Woodside boys and men’s stories will continue in the new year. Julie Reece Tours wishes you all a very happy Xmas and a safe and prosperous 2022.
