George William Wiles
 | 000117
George William Wiles was born at 35 Boswell Street, Middlesbrough on 3rd January 1896. Martha Bailey was born at 21 Carlin How, Skinningrove on 13th August 1897.
When war was declared George joined the 4th Battalion of the Yorkshire Regiment, the Green Howards, and was with the Battalion when it disembarked at Boulogne on 14th May 1915, and then became part of the 50th Northumberland Division. He has described in a document he wrote, at the request of his family, of going through hell in the trenches in March and April 1918, his experience in the Battle of the Aisne, and his wounding and subsequent capture during the devastating assault by the Germans which began on the night of 26th May 1918. He describes being in the trenches at Chemin Des Dames wearing a gas mask for over six hours, being bombarded with gas shells and high explosives. This battle and its catastrophic effects on the 4th Battalion was described in an article in the Yorkshire Post on 17th April 1919, under the Headline “ The Battalion's Tragic End “. It reports “the Battalion, and indeed the whole Brigade was practically wiped out , for the third time in about three months . The casualties to the battalion had been so appalling in the three great battles of March, April and May that it now ceased to exist as a fighting unit.” George Wiles was one of the fortunate ones, not being killed but being wounded and captured. He spent the rest of the war in a P.O.W camp in Munster, and after the Armistice arrived back in “Blighty “, disembarking in Hull , on Boxing Day 1918. He never said much about his experience but one of his sons remembers being shown a newspaper article about a Regimental re-union, at which the 4th Battalion was ordered to stand to attention. Only a handful of men got to their feet.
George Wiles and Martha Bailey were married at St. Aidan's Church, Boosbeck on 19th February 1919, and went to live in Lingdale, where they stayed for the next 20 years. Their first child Harry, subsequently educated at Guisborough Grammar School, was born at 36 Wilson Street on 10th February 1920, when George was working as a Carter for a Furniture dealer. Further children were born in Lingdale at a number of different addresses, and with George in a variety of occupations, including a long spell in the local Ironstone mine, at Little Moorsholm Farm, and ultimately as Agent and then Manager for a Draper, believed to be Roebucks of Redcar. The final Lingdale address was 8 Coral Street, where their immediate neighbours were the Hill family, who have been featured in the recent “Lingdale in Pictures“ pages on this website. The Wiles family left Lingdale in 1938 and moved to South Yorkshire where George had obtained employment in a recently opened coal mine, which only ceased production last year. A recent photograph caption in “ Lingdale in Pictures“ said that Mr & Mrs Hill at lived in Coral street from “ maybe the mid 1940s“ , but we can state that they were there at least from the early 1930's!.
The writer who was 6 when he left Lingdale always had the memory of living next to the sea and the “mountain”, ( only the shale heap in reality), which reared up behind Coral Street.
The Lingdale web-site has proved to be most interesting and has stirred other memories. Our oldest sister Ida remembers Mr Heckingbottom and his sweetshop, and many other names have struck chords. We also remember visiting our
mother's relatives the Mott family at Skinningrove. Our mothers family the Baileys also lived in Lingdale.

A Coral Street Reunion
 | 000284
In August 2006 a re-union took place in Whitby, where 45 Wiles family members ranging in age from 8 months to 84 years were present for at least a part of the week. Four members of the family, all born in Lingdale, made a return visit. The first person they met was able to show them where Coral street had stood, and when asked if Aubrey Hill was still in the village said that a lady then walking towards them would know. Sure enough she was able to take them to meet Aubrey, who was very surprised to meet former neighbours who had left Lingdale in 1938.
The photograph shows Aubrey Hill outside his home with Ida, Edith and Hilda Wiles.
