I am the secretary for the V.W.Corbett Lodge 3141 R.A.O.B. based in Bedlington. Trying to find out for definite what V.W. stands for? May be named after this gentleman (shortened) or of a Vincent William who was a student in 1919-20. A lodge is usually named after a person only after they have died. My information is, he was Owner/director of Netherton Colliery, Bedlington
