The three Bird brothers remembered in Penzance


A good turn-out this Remembrance Day (11/11/21) at the Memorial Gardens at Penlee in Penzance.


The ceremony was led by the British Legion and a bugler played the Last Post and Reveille.


We laid a wreath in memory of the three Bird brothers in Penzance who tragically lost their lives in World War One.

A fourth brother, Hubert, survived more than a year of active service at the Front. After the war he returned to Canada (where he had emigrated as a very young man) and founded Bird Construction, one of the biggest construction firms in Canada.
