The
Wealdstone memorial stands on the corner of the High Street and Spencer
Road and is in the form of a clocktower with panels on the three sides
of the tower naming those who died in World War 1. There are 249 names
listed by initial, rank and any decoration of these five names have
been added after the original list. The memorial was unveiled by Field
Marshal the Lord W E ironside on 11th November 1923 and dedicated by
the Archdeacon of Hampstead on 12th November 1923. The architect was
Mr Harold F Walker and the builder Mr J C Rackham. On 23rd August 1940
the clock on the memorial was damaged by enemy action adn the clock
stop at that time; the clock stayed this was for a further 5 years.
In 1970 the clock was dismantled to allow regilding of the hands and
new glass to be installed. The clock tower became a Grade 2 listed building
in September 2001. For ease of reading the names have been sorted into
alphabetical order and do not appear in the same order as the memorial.

Walter |
Lance
Corporal 18491, 2nd Battalion, Grenadier Guards. Died of wounds
11th October 1915. Aged 20. Born Wealdstone, enlisted Derby. Son
of Mrs. Ellen Cyster, of The Black Horse, Mobwell, Great Missenden,
Bucks. He was 17 in 1911 and living with his Mother Ellen and stepfather
James Cyster. He had 3 siblings, William, John and Emma Montague
and 3 half- siblings Ellen, James and Frederick Cyster. The family
were living in Wealdstone, Middlesex. Both George, his father, and
Ellen were born in Harrow Middlesex. Similarly his Stepfather hailed
from Middlesex, and had no obvious family connection to Blackwell.
He was working for his stepfather's business of Coal Agent in 1911,
and so it is possible that the connection to Blackwell is through
the coal business. He does not feature in Blackwell Colliery's "
Lest We Forget" , so was perhaps connected to the South Normanton
Colliery and lodging in Hilcote or to the Tibshelf Babbington Colliery
and staying at Newton. All this is supposition, but someone knew
him well enough to register his name for inclusion on the War Memorial
at Newton. He enlisted at Derby with the Grenadier Guards, and entered
France on 24th April 1915. Buried in ST. MARY'S A.D.S. CEMETERY,
