More than a hundred turn out for former soldier's funeral
Following a Facebook appeal, around 100 strangers have packed into St Tathan Church in the Vale of Glamorgan for the funeral of Harold Morgan, a former soldier with no known next of kin.
Appeal to trace late soldier's loved ones for funeral
A church in the Vale of Glamorgan is appealing for people who knew a former Welsh Guardsman to attend his funeral tomorrow.
Harold Morgan, 85, had asked for his final send-off to take place at St Tathan's Church in St Athan.
But organisers have put an appeal on Facebook after struggling to trace Mr Morgan's next of kin.
It has also emerged that Mr Morgan was a railway enthusiast, who was the founding member of the Welsh railways research circle and had written a couple of books on the subject.
