Hi Joe - and welcome to the WW2 Forum.

What's the story here!? None of these men are listed! I check them all with names and numbers, not one is shown!

Hi Paul,
I am new to this forum and am doing some genealogy on the Goodway family. A Google search on his name bought me here. I have identified Charles Edward Goodway as having died in Ceylon in 1945, but not much else. I read the thread and wonder if you have any info that could help me ?
Thanks

Nikki

Is this the man- Arthur James Dougherty ?

You may have spelled his name wrong

Cancel that I just checked his DoD

Apologies

Hi Nikki - as I mentioned above, he wasn't on the WW2 Army Roll of Honour, so I don't have anything beyond the war graves details Andy has posted.
