Alexander William ‘Bill’ Anderson’s childhood took place at Mount Prospect, Ballymountain, Co. Kilkenny. His parents Paul and Eily were active with both the South Kilkenny and Waterford branches of the Irish Red Cross Society. A talented illustrator, some of Bill’s work was published in the Waterford Standard. However such artistic pursuits were forgotten about when he joined the Royal Navy during the Second World War. A remarkable sequence of events saw one family disappear over a few years. A story linking Waterford, Kilkenny, Dublin, and beyond- Cian Manning reminds us of a man lost to the pages of history.
