GraemeClarke Posted 22 March , 2020 Share Posted 22 March , 2020 (edited) Morning, Been working on Walsall RoH for near on (or even longer) than 30 years. Below are the headstone images from F&F (and 1 Italy) lacking from my research. Hoping someone will have some of them tucked away on their hardrives somewhere. I have exhausted online media such as Findagrave and Billiongraves.

The CWGC cemetery plan is not very clear but I think he will be located close to the yellow flowering plants mid-picture at the bottom of the lawned area.

imaginatian Posted 23 March , 2020 Share Posted 23 March , 2020 Off the top of my head I think can only help with the Italian graves. I have been to some of the other cemeteries but don't think I have photographed any of these graves, other than possibly in wide-angle views. I will check though. These pictures were taken late on a hot sunny day in September 2015. Good luck with the others. Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraemeClarke Posted 24 March , 2020 Author Share Posted 24 March , 2020 Morning, Many thanks to Chaz, Temptage and Ian for their contributions, absolutely brilliant !! Thanks for taking the time to look. Ian, can I be a pain and as if you have the HS of George GALLIMORE in Grave I.D.7 in Arquata Scrivia Communal Cemetery Extension Many thanks, Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imaginatian Posted 24 March , 2020 Share Posted 24 March , 2020 Graeme, Unfortunately I do have a picture of this headstone, but it's too sad to post. This is an image of where it should be, and as you can see it was broken. The remains of the headstone were in the compost area on the southern edge of the plot. I'm sure it was quickly replaced. It's in the Google Maps Street View but that pre-dates my visit by 4 years. This cemetery is still on my list of places to (re)visit in Italy, but who knows when that will be?

GFW Posted 1 April , 2020 Share Posted 1 April , 2020 Hello Graeme, I hope you are in this difficult time. Please note that Liévin Station Cemetery does not exist any more. Soldiers' graves have transferred to Loos British Cemetery in1922. As I am a member of the association 'Loos, sur les traces de la grande Guerre', when C-19 confinement will be off, I will go to this cemetery. Please tell me if I have found the good soldier (see below) Private PRICE SIDNEY 200828 - South Staffordshire Regiment KIA 24 April 1917 Age 20 LOOS BRITISH CEMETERY - Grave XIX. F. 2. I will visit others cemeteries during my trips in the area where I, my family and my friends live. Please, update your list, not to go for nothing. Best wishes from France Pierre PS : Thank you for being lenient with my English. It dates back to my schooling and may be starting to be out of time.

GraemeClarke Posted 1 April , 2020 Author Share Posted 1 April , 2020 (edited) Morning Pierre, Many thanks for your kind offer, I really appreciate you contacting me. I have sent you an e-mail. You are quite correct about Lieven, I copied an incorrect part of my research in my haste. I do not have his image and have amended my original post. Your English is very good, far better, I think, than my French, certainly. Stay safe in these troubled times, Regards, Graeme Edited 1 April , 2020 by GraemeClarke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imaginatian Posted 1 April , 2020 Share Posted 1 April , 2020 Graeme, I've had a check and there are few more cemeteries on your list that I can help with. Here are the first two: Gonnehem British Cemetery - Private Arthur Pennell Guards' Cemetery, Combles - Private Herbert Alfred Harris He is actually in Grave 13 in Plot I, Row C and not Grave 3. I think I may have 3 or 4 more, and these will follow at some point when I'm bored with working at home! Regards, Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraemeClarke Posted 3 April , 2020 Author Share Posted 3 April , 2020 Morning Ian, Cannot thank you enough for the images, absolutely brilliant !! Thanks and regards, Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imaginatian Posted 3 April , 2020 Share Posted 3 April , 2020 Graeme, Here's a couple more. Serre Road Cemetery No 1 - Private Charles Hill Winnezeele Churchyard - Private Arthur Parkes I do have images for Shrine Cemetery, Bucquoy, but it's not clear from your edit of your original post if Chaz has supplied one or both of the headstones! The only other location I might have images for is Boulogne Eastern Cemetery. If I do then it will only be for Plot III. The 'if' is because my only visit there so far was interrupted by very sudden and very heavy rain! Regards, Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraemeClarke Posted 3 April , 2020 Author Share Posted 3 April , 2020 Hi Ian, Still need the Shrine cemetery one if you have it. On Kindle at the moment but will download images in the morning, Many thanks, once again, Regards, Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imaginatian Posted 3 April , 2020 Share Posted 3 April , 2020 (edited) Graeme, Final post! Boulogne Eastern Cemetery - Private Harry Haywood and Serjeant Joseph Thomas Reynolds The wooden cross was placed for Jospeh Reynolds, so someone still remembers. Shrine Cemetery, Bucquoy - Private Samuel Webb and Serjeant Arthur Linnell These are at a slight angle - if I had stood in front of the headstones I would have cast a shadow on them! An unrelated extra is the headstone of one of the men in your signature. Boscon British Cemetery - Private Walter Clarke Regards, Ian Edited 3 April , 2020 by imaginatian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaz Posted 3 April , 2020 Share Posted 3 April , 2020 IAn must have been a problem with Shrine, I took Webb as well but more of an angle than yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GraemeClarke Posted 4 April , 2020 Author Share Posted 4 April , 2020 Morning, Michelle- Many thanks to you and Valentin for your time and trouble. Ian - Once more many thanks for your interest in this thread. Walter Clarke is my grandfather who is my avatar. I did visit his grave many years ago, good to see the image. Chaz - Many thanks for your images, I think the angle on Webb was too acute to use - Sorry. Thanks to all and regards, Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFW Posted 4 April , 2020 Share Posted 4 April , 2020 Hi Graeme, I've sent to you seven pictures by Wetransfer. One of your list is missing, My Friend will send it tomorrow. Best wishes from France. Pierre Loos British Cemetery.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
