Soham Grammarians - Valete

Content of this page

Until such time that either the editor can work on material held in the Archive at Soham Village College or receive further material from SGs or their families, one way of listing former pupils beyond the Salvete sections of the Soham Grammarian where these appeared from 1937 (the earliest to hand) or in the School Lists which came later, is to list those shown as leavers, in the Valete sections of the school magazine.

The list below is presently compiled from the 1937-1953 issues of the Soham Grammarian; VALETE entries in the Soham Grammarian ceased by the Summer 1954 issue

Another page has begun listing early Old Boys Association members, as shown in the Summer issues of the Soham Grammarian.

Where someone is already mentioned on this website, a link to the principal page is provided (work in progress).

For clarity, the SC and HSC abbreviations in the originals have been expanded. ATC = Air Training Corps. AASM = Acting Assistant Scout Master. P/L = Patrol Leader

Action requested: If you can provide information on any of those listed below please contact the editor - what is known of them, if they died when, if not where are they now?
