Birth Records and Death Records on Coffin Plates ; Originally the manufacture of coffin plates was of course a cottage industry. The plates were made by a variety of craftsmen and woman with varying levels of skill. Wealthy people were able to contract with a skilled metalworker or silversmith and as a result some of the most elaborate plates can rightly be considered works of art. On the other end of the scale many plates were made by the local blacksmith or tinsmith and are of a crude and simple design. ...

In 1911 Donald was a student at Queens College public school at Trull, Taunton. His brother Hugh and cousins Charles and Ernest also attended Queen's. ; An Obituary published in Queen's Memorial booklet included the following: 'Donald Martin spent several happy years at Queen's. A quiet , unobtrusive boy, he had a high sense of honour. Religion to him was nothing if not practical. The fact, that in his letters to his home from the Front he often referred to his consciousness of God's presence and help, has been a comfort to his bereaved parents. At the age of 17, Donald volunteered for military service , but was told to wait a year by the military authorities. In October 1916 he enrolled as Private in the Royal Garrison Artillery, but was passed for garrison duty only. After training in Ireland and Shropshire, he accompanied his Siege Battery to France in early 1918. He was killed in action on 11 May 1918 by the bursting of a heavy calibre shell while standing by in the interval of serving his gun. Wounds were located in face, shoulder and left leg of which the main artery was severed. His C.O. expressed regret at the loss of one who had an unstained record and a splendid devotion to duty'. ; He was awarded the British and Victory medals.
