I refrained from wagering the deeds of Owls Towers on a successful outcome. My first impression is that the script is of German origin and that the stone is a limestone. The block to the left looks particularly shelly and the one with the script looks to have been worked. So in summary still no idea. Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Forge Posted 23 October , 2022 Share Posted 23 October , 2022 Hmm 🤔 it seems to say C or G Sent 9/51 10 VIII 18 so I was assuming Battle Amiens related. C or G Sent doesn’t turn up anything on gooogle. As @Fattyowls says, the script looks Germanic… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Forge Posted 23 October , 2022 Share Posted 23 October , 2022 … so if (BIG if) it’s the 51st Reserve Division, it might be near Braine on the Aisne in early August 1918. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only cemetery I can find close to "A lady" is Ablain St-Nazaire French Military Cemetery “Notre Dame de Lorette”, which being a French cemetery is clearly not the one.
