Finding Sapper Clay

The chance discovery of a First World War medal in a garden in Surrey triggered the search for an old soldier’s family.  This would span 19th Century brickmaking in Warwickshire, the Somme, Gallipoli and a family story that that would connect to Geroge Elliot’s (Mary Anne Evans’) first story collection published in 1857.  Who was Sapper Clay?

John Griffiths-Colby has a background in Journalism, Business Consultancy and public speaking.
