Casualties mentioned on the War Memorial in Barton Under Needwood, Staffordshire. There are 32 names on the memorial, although some casualties buried in the churchyard of St James Parish Church are not mentioned on the memorial. Unfortunately I cannot positively tie down John Francis Keeling. There are 2 possible candidates but the one doesnt tie into Baron-Under-Needwood while the other (a more likely candidate) does not have a 2nd name and there is almost no information on him in the census records.
