Private Alfred Aspinall, who fell at Gallipoli

Private Alfred (Fred) Aspinall grew up in Kensington.  He had been a member of the Holy Trinity Church of England choir as a lad, and as a teenager developed an interest in physical culture and boxing.  He also attended drill with the 64th Infantry Battalion, CMF  at the drill hall in Victoria Street, Melbourne.  The photograph courtesy of Kim Phillips of Spirits of Gallipoli, shows Fred as a Senior Cadet.  Sheila Byard examines the record of Fred Aspinall who fell at the landing at Gallipoli.

The former Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Kensington

In the 1970s the Holy Trinity church building was sold.  The Honour Board disappeared around this time and probably won't be seen again.  Does anyone have access to any photos or lists of names from that Honour Board?  Please get in touch if you know anything.

UPDATE:  I am compiling a list of volunteers known to have been associated with Holy Trinity.
