In November 2018, dlr LexIcon hosted an exhibition on the life of Charles Stanley Cuthbert curated by dlr Libraries' archivist in residence David Gunning. Thanks to the support and generosity of Philip and Peter Cuthbert who donated their father’s manuscript diary of his experiences of WWI, amongst other artefacts and memorabilia, we are now delighted to present this digitised manuscript and a new version of the exhibition online via Microsoft Sway at https://sway.office.com/AuuzkQjW58504YY8?ref=email. The pdf version below of the manuscript diary is divided into two consecutive pdfs, part I and part 2.
After the war, Charles made his home in Ireland. He stayed at a variety of addresses in Dún Laoghaire and Blackrock in the 1930s and 40s and lived in Shankill from 1970 until his death at the age of 93 in 1988.
The Charles Stanley Cuthbert Collection was originally donated to dlr Local Studies & Archives in 2015.
