I was bequeathed this photograph of Private Thackery's memorial by my great aunt whose brother, Ernest Whitaker served with the Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantary during the Great War. I understand that Private Thackery was a friend of Ernest's.
Though strictly this is NOT a "Lincolnshire War Memorial", in keeping with this website, I have included the photo hoping that someday a relative of Thackery may see it and make contact.
