Kate Wills Posted 4 September , 2009 Share Posted 4 September , 2009 Judy, I don't know how big KG St Mary's is, but could I ask for: Second Lieutenant EDWARD JOSEPH DILLON M M 7th Training Depot Station., Royal Air Force who died age 23 on 12 April 1918 Son of Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Dillon, of 149, Walm Lane, Willesden Green, London. Born at St. Mary Cray, Kent. KENSAL GREEN (ST. MARY'S) ROMAN CATHOLIC CEMETERY grave 8117 I think it is a family grave, rather than a CWGC headstone. Many thanks in advance Kate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wesley Posted 5 September , 2009 Share Posted 5 September , 2009 Chris & Kate - I was at Kensal Green today on a mission for my dad, and added your 'wants' to my list in case I had time. Well, I did have time and I have photos of the graves, so if Judy didn't manage to get them today or if you would like more just PM me an email address (not you Chris, I've already got yours ) and I'll send them to you.

judy7007 Posted 6 September , 2009 Share Posted 6 September , 2009 A Forum Pal has sent me a PM about a very special mission and I am going back to St Mary's Cemetery tomorrow. If anyone else would like a photo either there or at Kensal Green, please PM before around 10am tomorrow. Kind regards Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wesley Posted 6 September , 2009 Share Posted 6 September , 2009 Judy - Can I ask if you are taking a photo of the Mitson grave? I only ask because I have also been asked for a photo of said grave, and if you are able to take it I'll cross it off my list as I won't be back at Kensal Green for a couple of weeks, and it will save the recipient waiting too long for the photo.

Yes Wesley, to start I PM'ed both of you and Judy indicated she is going tomorrow. So cross him off your list, and thanks very much for your kind offer.
