Harry Milton joined Hackney Branch of the SPGB in February 1927 and died at the criminally young age of 32 in December 1933. His obituary appeared in the February 1934 issue of the Socialist Standard.

Walter Thompson was a member of Hackney Branch. One of those SPGBers who joined, left and rejoined the SPGB 3 or 4 times over the years.

David Goldberg was also a member of the Hackney Branch of the SPGB in March 1925. He died in WW2. "Killed in action".

'D. Fisher' could have been Douglas Fisher. Joined Stoke Newington Branch of the SPGB in October 1908. Left the SPGB in 1911 over the WB of Upton Park affair. He rejoined the SPGB via Islington Branch in September 1918.

Jack Kosky joined the East London Branch of the SPGB in November 1930. Another one of those SPGBers who was an on/off member over the years. A cab-driver (like Sammy Cash) he was also on occasion a member of the Stepney Branch of the SPGB.
