Hemel Hempstead Council & Officials in 1911/2 |
|
The book The London Gunners come to Town describes life in Hemel Hempstead during the First World War, and because my grandfather Walter Richard Locke was the Borough Engineer, it looks in detail at the work of the Council. As part of the research for the book I made copious notes and the following list covers the Councillors on the Borough, Rural District and County Councils, members of key committees, and council officers. The information was taken from a list published in the Gazette of 16th December, 1911, with the names expanded where known. Names in italic are of people mentioned in the book. |
