A Union Pacific Tacoma, Washington to Global 4, Illinois container train glides eastward through Ainsworth State Park at Donson, Oregon the morning of July 17, 2025.

 

I tracked the ITAG4 17 container train's movement east, and it required four days to cover the distance between the Port of Tacoma and the G4 Intermodal Terminal in Joliet, Illinois.

Raina, a pretty girl from Grom village of Romboor.

Other side of Romboor valley.

It's one of the best carved Buddhas on the rock in the valley of Swat, but it's in danger because of the increasing insurgency and talibanisation in Swat valley, I took the snap during the last days of Ramadan in October, this Buddha's faces 2 severe attacks, and lost its face, but I can't say what'll happen to it in the future..

Achulgah river and valley, a very hidden place in Hindukush.

Every season's its own colors, I don't know why but autumn colors give me sadness.

The old lady inside the flour mill, waiting for her grain.

Another beautiful truck, from one of the stations in Chitral.

A row of shops which attracted me around the corner from Little Brickkiln Street, Wolves. I rather liked the frame design of the yellow painted windows. On the right, one can just see the start of the J. Harper rope shop, depicted in my photostream

The naughty kid with his mama.

It's a lovely peak, inviting the adventure lovers, to come and explore, as soon as one enters Chitral, Terichmir's visible.

With its 2 base camps from differeent sides, one of the most difficult & Challenging peaks in Hindukush, Chitral.

Still the ancient means of domsetic life're paractised in Hindukush, in the picture, a flour mill, which's grinding the maize or wheat.

discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/D6154217

 

His Service Records do not appear to have survived the incendiary attack during the Blitz on the Warehouse where they were being stored.

 

1896 Birth

 

The birth of an Alfred Edward Dowson was registered in the Mutford District of Suffolk in the October to December quarter, (Q4), of 1896.

 

Mutford District covered Lowestoft and the nearby villages.

 

The baptism of an Alfred Edward Dowson, no date of birth recorded, took place at St Margaret, Lowestoft on the 4th December 1896. His parents were George and Louisa Elizabeth Dowson.

1901 Census of England and Wales

 

I could not find Alfred or his parents initially on this census. But armed with the details from the 1911 census I was able to look again. I found the genealogy source I use for census checks had mistranscribed the family name as “Donson”. In their defence I would say for the majority of the family surnames – and each one has been shown with a surname – then Donson would be my best guess. However father George, aged 37, a Tin Plate Worker from Lowestoft, is definitely a Dowson. And while I could change my source, in my experience all the main UK sites use the same original transcription source so I’ll stick with the one that I find has the most flexible search engine.

 

George and his family were living at 26 Grosvenor Road, Great Yarmouth. With him are wife Louisa Elizabeth, (35, born Lowestoft) and children:-

May Louisa……..aged 11…..born Lowestoft

George Robert….aged 10……born Lowestoft

Louisa Elizabeth..aged 8…….born Lowestoft

Alfred Edward….aged 4…….born Lowestoft

Percy ‘Wm’……..aged 1……born Lowestoft

Also living with them are Georges’ mother-in-law (and Louisas’ mother), Louisa Elizabeth Field, a married woman, aged 53 and born Lowestoft.

 

1911 Census of England and Wales

 

The 14 year old Alfred E. Dowson, an Errand Boy for a Clothes Shop, born Lowestoft, was recorded living at 7 Spurgeon’s Score, Lowestoft. This was the household of his parents George, (aged 47, a Tinsmith for a Preserved Provisions Manufacturer, born Lowestoft), and Louisa E., (aged 45, born Lowestoft). The couple have been married 22 years and have had 7 children, of which 6 were then still alive. All 6 were then still single and living at home.

May L……….aged 21…born Lowestoft….Waitress

George R……aged 20…born Lowestoft….Labourer for a Preserved Provisions Manufacturer

Louisa E…….aged 16…born Lowestoft

Percy W…….aged 12….born Great Yarmouth

Florence D….aged 8……born Great Yarmouth

 

War Service

 

A forum enquiry elicited the response that Alfred served with the 8th Battalion and that notification of his award of the Military Medal appeared in the London Gazette dated 21st December 1916.

 

Awards in this Gazette are, largely, for operations on the Somme in September and October 1916, including the capture of Thiepval, Regina Trench, Bayonet Trench and Delville Wood, amongst others. Dates noted 1st September -21st October 1916.

(He was the brother in law of a Frederick James and Harry Willgoss, two brothers who came from Lowestoft although they are not remembered in the Chapel at St Margaret, Lowestoft. Both enlisted in the 1st Battalion, Suffolk Regiment. Frederick was killed on the 4th May 1915, while Harry would be discharged in early 1918 as no longer fit for service, having spent time as a German Prisoner of War.)

 

The 8th Battalion had two major actions – a counter-attack on the 19th July and an attack on the 26th September that might have led to an award being included in that edition of the London Gazette, although it could have been for a minor action. However the Official Regimental History is quite explicit on the honours awarded for the 19th July, but is more concerned with the praise from the Divisional Commander for their actions on the 26th September.

 

On the day

 

Without his service record or some other personal source it would be guesswork at this point as to the cause of his death. However, for him to have been included on the War Memorial at St Margaret, it would seem most likely that he finally succumbed to injuries received during the war.

 

There is no obvious Soldiers Will or Civil Probate for this man.

 

The local council have put their cemetery records online, but Alfred is not included. However looking at the other Dowson’s listed gives us details of other members of the family.

 

A child of George and Louisa, Robert Dowson of 190 Clapham Road, Lowestoft, died aged 1 hour and was interred on the 28th January 1893.

 

George Dowson, a 78 year old Old Age Pensioner of 7 Spurgeons Score, Lowestoft was buried on the 10th April 1942.

 

Louisa Elizabeth Dowson, a 90 year old widow of 7 Spurgeons Score, Lowestoft, was buried on the 24th December 1955.

An excellent guy, good knowledge about the treks in that area.

The colors of autumn are visible from the snap in Achulgah valley.

I like this village with all its colors.

1928's mosque, built by Sir Nasir-ul-Mulk, Mehtar-e-Chitral, ex rulers.

 

It's on Donson pass, less than 3000 m, a beautiful pass with very old and huge Cedar trees.

 

It's from a recent trek across Kalash valleys.

The snaps's from a trek in October 2007, over Donson pass, I like the weather at this time of the year.

A device, goat's skin, my grandmama used to make lassi and butter from this skin.In the local language it's known as manoo.

with its beautiful architecture.

I was busy with a camera, over a lunch at Khan Klub, Peshawar.
