The 17th century living history world has been shocked and saddened to learn of the death of one of the living history greats, Roger Emmerson. An artillery man - if you wanted to know anything about Ordnance then Roger was your man. He has been an active reenactor with his family since the earliest times in the 70s right up to this year and has many friends spanning different countries and periods. He also did Marlburian artillery as well as ECW (Hazzard's Roundhead Association) and was a popular participant of many continental battles. He used to be editor of a fine publication the Living History Register which was a great read. His passing is a blow to the world of reenactment. The photo is by Paul Houlton and is from 1989 at Lychett Minster Dorset.
