Hi

Whilst trying to locate the grave of Dvr Lund from my other posting I came across a grave of Pte Robert B Brownrigg ASC MT (MIC gives number as M2/015199

He served overseas from 1915 and the MIC has died 7th March 1919

I cannot find him on CWGC he is in a non CWGC grave.

I suppose best way forward is the DC

The MIC has nothing on it reference been discharged or anything.

Theres also the grave of

Corpl

Joe Willie Shaw RE

gassed at Friecourt died at Woodland Hospital Southport Oct 8th 1916 Non CWGC

Edit Have found him here http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2752000

Lightcliffe Cemetery near Brighouse West Yorks.

Very over-run with trees and bushes!
