@tanktales.bsky.social Whilst researching 14th Hampshire's, came across A/Major Frederick Skinner KIA 3/9/1916. In 1911 census he was teaching at KE's in Bath, living in Bloomfield Avenue. Edited the first school mag. At outbreak of war he was teaching at Portsmouth Grammar School.

Some of my unique commissioned paintings are inspired by an object, others by a story, and some on what little is known to help bring a person to life. All of them are crafted with love and care.
