Kings Road: for King and Country by Judy Sutton
To commemorate those men from Kings Road, St Albans, Hertfordshire, who lost their lives in the Great War.
Judy Sutton moved to King's Road St Albans with her husband in 1986. It was there that they raised their family. She has a keen interest in local and social history and, over the years, has enjoyed learning more about her street and its residents.
In 2018, when the country honoured those who had sacrificed their lives in the Great War, her thoughts turned to King's Road and the part it had played in this conflict. Who were the men and what were their stories?
This publication is a tribute to them and a reminder of how these ordinary men made extraordinary sacrifices.
A native of St Albans and life-long resident in the city, Helen Little found that becoming involved in the King’s Road project has indulged two of her great loves: St Albans and genealogical research. One of Helen’s great-grandfathers had been killed on the Somme, not knowing that he’d left a daughter.
Consequently, Helen is keen that the men of King’s Road who died in the Great War are not forgotten. She believes that their stories should be told so that their memories can live on in the lives of their sons, daughters, nephews, nieces and wider family, along with those who are now connected, by residence, with their home city and street.
