Gunner Grundy was 'found' named on a headstone in the partly derelict Wardsend cemetery here in Sheffield. One of the 'friends' of the cemetery, Hugh Waterhouse, passed on the image to me to research and put him forward for possible commemoration. Well done Hugh, and thank you again to Terry for his part in this.

regards

Dean.
