Bernard J. Ongley (3) actually rang at Croydon Parish Church on VE Day in 1945, whilst stationed nearby in the forces. He was 18 years old at the time. (See photos below).
I would be interested to know if Bernard is the only ringer listed on the Board still alive? He must be one of the few ringers still ringing who rang for VE Day in 1945.
Can anyone help?
