Story

A few weeks ago I discovered that the information for a North East volunteer was incorrect - https://foxburg.edublogs.org/2023/07/01/ron-dennison/ the information we had was that Joseph Ron Dennison had been born in Bellingham, Northumberland. I have since proved that it was a mistake and that he was born in Stockton. He was Secretary of the Billingham Labour Party.

Although Ron Dennison is named on the Teesside international Brigade Memorial in Middlesbrough Town Hall (https://foxburg.edublogs.org/2021/02/22/teesside-ib-memorial/ ) this is not accessible to the general public and by rights, Ron Dennison should be on the Stockton memorial (https://foxburg.edublogs.org/2023/06/02/the-stockton-memorial/ ) but due to a spelling mistake, which dates back to 1939, he is not named on the Stockton memorial.

We would like to erect a memorial to Lieutenant Ron Dennison, a volunteer for Liberty who served his local community before losing his life fighting fascism in Spain.
