BIFFO Posted 22 May , 2020 Share Posted 22 May , 2020 Completely out of my comfort zone,I took a punt I have a medal for Robert Campbell R/2112 Drake battalion died 8th October 1918 I know he is buried in Delaux Farm British Cemetery but cannot find plot number to TRY an get a headstone photo.I know lots of soldiers I have researched in the past have had their graves blown up and you see believed to be buried in this cemetery,but nothing like this . I have three questions GWF 1) I have him in 1901 Scottish census born in Camelon Falkirk cannot find a Scottish census for 1911 is there one ? 2) even tho I know where he lays how do I find a plot number ? 3) how do I find what action he was in which unfortunately lead to his death . As I have previously said out of my comfort zone much HELP required Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
