211809 Rfmn. Neason Henry Hale MM British Army 1st Battalion Royal Irish Rifles from:Ballymoney, Co. Antrim (d.11th Aug 1917) Neason Hale joined the staff of the Ulster Bank after leaving school, working along side his close neighbour John Gray. They both enlisted in March 1916. Rifleman Hale’s name is included in a list of missing in the The Ulster Bank magazine ‘Passing Events’ edition of Christmas 1918. The magazine editorial expressed the hope that he, and the other men, would soon return, but unfortunately the fate of Rifleman Hale will never be known. The Hale family were never officially informed that he had been killed, and his mother always believed that one day he would come home. Rifleman Neason H. Hale is commemorated on a plaque in the entrance hall of the Ulster Bank Buildings, Waring Street, Belfast.
