Whitchurch Museum Posted 11 June , 2015 Share Posted 11 June , 2015 Hi Beth, I think the listing under Shropshire for Whitchurch should be this one http://medieval-wales.com/site_31_denbigh.php. The grave is listed here The graves for the Tilstock names are on this site http://www.shropshirewarmemorial.org.uk/Tilstock%20(Cemetery)%20War%20Graves.html Regards Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grave is listed here Yes I would suggest changing the listing to: Denbigh, Whitchurch Road. (St Marcella) - ROBERTS T 2184 because there are at least 2 places in South Wales named Whitchurch. Perhaps a forum member from North Wales might be able to take a photo once they realise it's near them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRC Posted 22 September , 2015 Share Posted 22 September , 2015 Hi, Just seen this request. Hainford is about a 15 minute drive for just off a road I travel several times a week so will hopefully stop by over the next few days. I was out there in March and while John Thomas Coleman is recorded on the War memorial there were no CWGC pattern headstones that I spotted and I did do a tour of the churchyard looking for names recorded on family headstones and drew a blank - however, I didn't know then that there was something to find :-). I see from another post that you are quite close to your goal, so hopefully you already have good quality pictures of these Diggers from the main Earlham Cemetery in Norwich. Private Edwards - 27th Battalion AIF - 1916 by Moominpappa06, on Flickr Corporal Marshall - Australian Machine Gun Corps - 1918 by Moominpappa06, on Flickr Driver White AASC 1917 by Moominpappa06, on Flickr Private Hurley - 56th Battalion AIF - 1916 by Moominpappa06, on Flickr Serjeant Holtum MM - 12th Battalion AIF - 1918 by Moominpappa06, on Flickr There may well be more for the Earlham Cemetery - there are 500+CWGC commemorations and probably as many again for individuals who are remembered on family headstones, so difficult to keep track!. Let me know if you'd like the image files rather than a link and I'll send them over. regards, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to his service records (Coleman) it states he is laid to rest on the left hand side of the churchyard. I think I have all I need for Earlham, will let you know Cheers Beth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done Dai, You should be aware though that this is not a standard CWGC headstone. There is a thumbnail photo of what you are looking for here : http://www.twgpp.org/information.php?id=2425568 BillyH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
