We have recently received a
request from a lady looking for information on a relative and Old Boy of Boston Grammar School who was killed in action during WWII. His name was Walter Henry Brunning.
Apparently a piece was written about him in an Old Bostonian
magazine dated 14 August 1991. We do not have a copy of this in the
Museum but wondered if you have kept back copies and could supply us
with a copy of the article which apparently appeared on page 19.
More generally, if you have any BGS memorabilia which they
no longer want it would be great if you could let us have it for the
Museum. Current history Master John McHenry has now taken responsibility for the
Museum which will in future be of more interest to Old Boys revisiting the
Boston.
Many thanks to all who responded to this request and in particular John Lines who found the article which has now been passed on to the relative. We have also been offered more memorabilia for the Museum as a result of this request.
