Private George
(Thomas?) Conlon Another name not on your POW list. I'm not sure about this one though
as I cannot find any records for a soldier of the name George Conlon.
I can find a soldier of the name T. Conlon of the Manchester Rgt with
that number though, so this is why I'm questioning it. His details on
the POW sheet (attached) are 16082 George Conlon C Coy 18th Manchester
Rgt. Captured at St. Quentin 21/03/1918 and held POW at Cassel. He was
born 04/06/1897 at Burnley and lived in Burnley. In the 1911vCensus returns
I can only find one Thomas Conlon with the above details and he has an
older brother called Thom, so a tad confusing! I cannot find anyone called
George Conlon for Burnley though.
