I'd like to know more if possible? Grave Reference:215.Cemetery:VALE PAROCHIAL CEMETERY, GUERNSEY Kind regards, Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisharley9 Posted 21 March , 2016 Share Posted 21 March , 2016 Mark They never really tell me as I am outside of the loop on that one. I can ask for you though. Can you send me a PM by way of reminder please. Chris With regard to any ceremony that would have to be done locally as CWGC normally do not organise anything.
