John Scanlan died 12th December 1919


I've just updated the article I did earlier this month after a visit to the Local Studies library. I assumed that it was a weapon that killed John but it was in fact a bullet from a German magazine clip, 

And the question is and no-one can really answer it - was John the last man from Sheffield to be shot by a German bullet from the Great War?
