George Louis Middleton
ARP Warden
from:Norwich, Norfolk
My father, George Louis Middleton, based Lyon Wood Road, Thorpe, Norwich during WW2 as an ARP warden. We would like his Service Number as we qualify as next of kin for his Defence Medal.
We would be grateful for any information, as we have tried our local archive records office, also the City Hall Norwich.
We have also tried our local newspaper archive library to no avail.
No one seems to have any records of these brave volunteers who worked tirelessly to save those people during and after the air raids.
My parents themselves were 'bombed out' 3 times in Norwich!
My father worked for Lawrence & Scott Electrical Motors as a skilled man, making torpedos and engine parts for the war effort.
They do not have records either!
