Jack Sedgwick [John Lindley Sedgwick/ Rebecca Hobson] At the time of his marriage, Jack gives his age as 20 and his fathers name as John Sedgwick, general carrier, deceased. Jack was in the Royal Artillery based at Newcastle barracks in 1916 and his medal record card has survived. The indexes show his number and rank as Driver / 127798. After the war it is believed that Jack worked as a chimney sweep in the Leeds area and possibly had some connection with the Manchester Railways. In about 1928/1930 Jack took two of his sons and went to look for work. The family lost touch with the 3 men from that point. Thanks to Ancestry, the deaths of the two missing sons were located in Bury and recently their descendants have been located and the family in contact for the first time in 70 or so years. |
