250402 Cpl. Thomas Herbert Donoghue British Army 1st Btn. Royal Berkshire Regiment (d.24th April 1944) Cpl Bertie Donoghue was my grandfather, married to Ivy Alice May Donoghue, from London. Thomas had two boys (who were evacuated from London during the war). Ivy went on to have three other children in London but they were all killed by a V2 a few weeks before the end of the war. Ivy and the other three children are buried in Islington cemetery. It wasn't until 2000-2001 that we found the link, concerning Grandad and through it my, dad, William was reunited with family, lost after the war. We have only two pictures of grandad and would love to see others of him with others in his battalion.
