Recommended Posts

I have a copy of the 1st Part (A to L ) of the 1924 Imperial War Graves Commission Register for:

St. Sever Cemetery, Rouen, France.

It lists the hospitals in the area as:

8 General

5 Stationary

1 British Red Cross

1 Native Labour Hospital

No. 2 Convalescent Depot

There are 3,083 British and Dominion burials divided alphabetically into two registers.

I would be happy to look details in the copy I have - First Part A to L

Ronnie.

Kevin,

I've typed the information as printed in the register.

With regard to L/Cpl Holliday, he's buried in the extension to St. Sever, which is a separate register to the one I have.

HOLT, Pte. Richard, 4/6841. "C" Coy. 1st Bn. West Yorkshire Regt. Died of meningitis 26th July, 1915. Age 26. Son of Richard and Eliza Ann Holt, of 14, Upper Wrigglesworth St., Bank, Leeds. Proceeded to France, 26th Dec., 1914. A. 5. 34.

KENT, Lce. Cpl. Fred, 7345. 1st Bn. West Yorkshire Regt. 31st March, 1915. Age 27. Son of Ellen Kent, of 9, Church End, Ashdon, Saffron Waldon, Essex. A. 7. 9.

Hope the above is of help,

Regards,

Ronnie.
