MEMORIALS OUTSIDE COSELEY

Many memorials outside the Coseley Urban District include the names of Coseley men who died in the First World War.  Church memorials in the neighbouring Sedgley Urban District as well as Bilston, Tipton and Wolverhampton are among them, as well as regiment and works memorials.  As already mentioned, some of the men who died had lived on the borders of Wolverhampton, Bilston or Tipton and at least one serviceman moved from Coseley to Wolverhampton, hence his inclusion on Wolverhampton church memorials.  Another soldier, Luke Astley, is commemorated on St. John's Church Memorial in Wolverhampton and it is not know if he had moved from Coseley before the outbreak of the war.  One soldier, Joseph Caddick, who lived on Parkfield Road on the northern border of Coseley Urban District, is remembered at his fomer Wolverhampton school and also at the church his family attended which was demolished many years ago, although fortunately the memorial plaque has been relocated as detailed below.
