larney Posted 9 April , 2012 Share Posted 9 April , 2012 Parcell Bowen's grave is definitely at Abergwili Churchyard in Carmarthenshire. I have visited it and photographed it. I also have various newspaper clippings which tell of his burial there after being brought home from Dublin. Hopefully the CWGC will soon verify and amend his record. SteveJ.

Phil Evans Posted 25 October , 2015 Share Posted 25 October , 2015 Chris, Do you have the grave reference for George Stakes Bowden? Apparently his grave was marked back in the 1980's, but my first attempt at locating it has ended in failure. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
