Robert Edward Hartigan 1896-1976 awarded the Benemerenti medal in 1969 for services to the Catholic Church in Bradfield, Berkshire working with the Brothers from Douai Abbey, Bucklebury. Extract from Douai Magazine 1970: “It may be recorded here that at the “At Home” held for the Parish on January 5, Sgt. Hartigan was awarded the Bene Merenti medal, as a recognition for all the work he has done for the Church. He has been a great friend of ours for many years, and has been a tower of strength to us in our centre at Bradfield. If anyone deserves such an honour it is he. As Fr. Abbot was unwell, Fr. Sylvester presented the medal as a recognition of his services to the Church to be added to those he already has in recognition of his services to his country. And while we pay tribute to him, let us also take this chance of thanking Mrs. Hartigan for all that she has done in welcoming and looking after our Fathers at Bradfield. If Sgt. Hartigan trained us in the gymnasium to the theme of “Crows, cranes, crusts and crumpets”, Mrs. Hartigan has fed us on a good deal more than crusts and crumpets, and it is difficult to express adequately all that we owe to them both.”
