Pte 12226 Edward Lloyd, 1/4th Bttn Royal Welch Fusiliers. Youngest son of Mr and Mrs Edward Lloyd, Bronniarth, Guilsfield who was killed 13 January 1917, France.

Montgomeryshire County Times report 3 February 1917: We regret to hear that Pte D.E. Lloyd lost his life in France. The parents received last Monday the following communnication from his Second Lieut. 'I regret that circumstances prevented me previously expressing my deepest sympathy with you in the loss of your son. Pte D.E. Lloyd who was killed in action during the afternooon of 13 January 1917. His comrades paid their last tributes on January 14th and a cross has been erected to mark the resting place of one who so very nobly laid down his life for his King and Country'.

Mrs Jones: I suspect John Lloyd's death must be from wounds as it took place a month after Armistice was announced.

Pte. 48391 John Lloyd, 16th Bn. (according to Commonwealth War Graves Commission records, though the family memorial service card states 5th Bn.) Manchester Regiment, died of wounds 12th December 1918, and is buried in Tournai Communal Cemetery Allied Extension.

These images are a sample from a folder of research undertaken by Mrs Jones into the men named on the war memorial (1914-1919) of Guilsfield parish (near Welshpool, Montgomeryshire - now Powys, in Wales). The names include: Frank Arthur, Ernest Charlton, Edward Evans, Robert Evans, Fred Evans, Charles Galliers, Robert Gainsford, Edward Griffiths,John Higgins, Edwin Jones, James Jones, Charles Jones, William Jones, Alan Langlands, Edward Lloyd, John Lloyd, Richard Morgan, Edward Morris, John Owen, Evan Phillips, Herbert Trevor, David E. Bailey, Herbert Bailey, Arthur Gough, Charles Jones, George R. Jones, Arthur T. Lewis, Mathew W.H. Morris, Richard D.H. Mytton, Gruffydd V. Trevor. Representing a number of regiments of the army, also the Royal Navy and the Royal Flying Corps. Also evident is the volunteers who joined up early in the war, as well as the tribunals which decided that even though farming was a reserved occupation that man-power being so scarce some men would be compelled to join the army, leaving their families, their aging fathers, mothers, sisters and younger siblings to continue to provide food for the war effort - an insight into the home-front in rural Wales.

向阵亡者家属发出的常规通知复印件，此类通知通常随亲人离世的消息一并送达。

爱德华·劳埃德的长兄约翰·劳埃德二等兵（Pte John Lloyd）的纪念卡复印件，约翰亦于战争中牺牲。曼彻斯特军团第5营的约翰·劳埃德在法国阵亡，享年35岁，安葬于1918年12月12日。

皇家威尔士燧发枪团（Royal Welch Fusiliers）第1/4营二等兵（Pte）爱德华·劳埃德，编号12226。他是圭尔斯菲尔德（Guilsfield）布朗尼亚斯（Bronniarth）的爱德华·劳埃德夫妇的幼子，1917年1月13日在法国阵亡。

《蒙哥马利郡时报》（Montgomeryshire County Times）1917年2月3日报道：“获悉D.E.劳埃德二等兵（Pte D.E. Lloyd）在法国牺牲，我们深感悲痛。其父母于上周一所收信件来自他的少尉（Second Lieut.），内容如下：‘因情况所限，未能及时就令郎牺牲向您致以最深切的慰问，我深感遗憾。D.E.劳埃德二等兵于1917年1月13日下午阵亡。他的战友已于1月14日致以最后的敬意，且已竖立十字架以纪念这位为国王与国家英勇献身之人的安息之地。’”

琼斯夫人（Mrs Jones）：“我推测约翰·劳埃德的牺牲系因伤所致，因其死亡时间在停战协定（Armistice）宣布一个月之后。”

曼彻斯特军团（Manchester Regiment）第16营二等兵（Pte）约翰·劳埃德，编号48391（根据英联邦战争墓地委员会（Commonwealth War Graves Commission）记录，但其家族纪念卡显示为第5营）。他于1918年12月12日因伤去世，安葬于图尔奈公共墓地盟军扩展区（Tournai Communal Cemetery Allied Extension）。

这些图像是琼斯夫人针对圭尔斯菲尔德教区（Guilsfield parish，位于威尔士蒙哥马利郡威尔士浦附近，现属威尔士波伊斯郡）1914-1919年战争纪念碑上所列人员开展研究的文件夹中的样本。纪念碑上的姓名包括：弗兰克·亚瑟（Frank Arthur）、欧内斯特·查尔顿（Ernest Charlton）、爱德华·埃文斯（Edward Evans）、罗伯特·埃文斯（Robert Evans）、弗雷德·埃文斯（Fred Evans）、查尔斯·加利尔斯（Charles Galliers）、罗伯特·盖恩斯福德（Robert Gainsford）、爱德华·格里菲斯（Edward Griffiths）、约翰·希金斯（John Higgins）、埃德温·琼斯（Edwin Jones）、詹姆斯·琼斯（James Jones）、查尔斯·琼斯（Charles Jones）、威廉·琼斯（William Jones）、艾伦·兰兰兹（Alan Langlands）、爱德华·劳埃德（Edward Lloyd）、约翰·劳埃德（John Lloyd）、理查德·摩根（Richard Morgan）、爱德华·莫里斯（Edward Morris）、约翰·欧文（John Owen）、埃文·菲利普斯（Evan Phillips）、赫伯特·特雷弗（Herbert Trevor）、戴维·E·贝利（David E. Bailey）、赫伯特·贝利（Herbert Bailey）、亚瑟·高夫（Arthur Gough）、查尔斯·琼斯（Charles Jones）、乔治·R·琼斯（George R. Jones）、亚瑟·T·刘易斯（Arthur T. Lewis）、马修·W·H·莫里斯（Mathew W.H. Morris）、理查德·D·H·米顿（Richard D.H. Mytton）、格鲁菲德·V·特雷弗（Gruffydd V. Trevor）。这些人来自陆军多个军团，亦有来自皇家海军（Royal Navy）与皇家飞行队（Royal Flying Corps）者。此外，研究还揭示了战争初期的志愿者，以及征兵法庭（tribunals）的裁决：尽管农业属保留职业（Reserved Occupation），但因人力极度匮乏，部分人员仍被迫参军，留下家人——年迈的父母、姐妹及年幼的弟妹——继续为战争努力供应粮食，这为威尔士乡村的后方生活提供了深刻洞察。
