| I have come across several individual references ro the erection of blue plaques to indicate where individuals lived with links to the Zulu war. is there a definitive list anywhere? The plaques I have come across are:-
Cetshwayo - 18 Melbury Road W14 William Cooper - 6 Cranmer Road Worthing. Frederick Hitch - 62 Cranbrook Road London
I am sure there must be others.

However he was born in Docking in Norfolk. I thought as much, thanks. I am a volunteer on the blue plaques web site openplaques.org, so this thread was interesting to me. Of those mentioned, we have: Cetshwayo [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]William Cooper [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Frederick Hitch [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Frank Bourne [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]There is one for Ivor Rees [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] but we only really collect the ones that mark where something happened (like 'born here', 'lived here', etc.) I'd be interested if anyone has photographic evidence of a plaque to John Chard in Rochester Kent. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] says there is one for Thomas Collins in Pelcomb but I can't pinpoint the exact location |
