BarbaraG Posted 11 October , 2021 Share Posted 11 October , 2021 (edited) Thank you for reference George. As John is already commemorated a message to CWGC with from Register details as above should suffice as it’s just a matter of updating record. Any idea If there is a headstone, if not they may/should provide one in due course. https://www.cwgc.org/find-records/commemorations/casualty-amendment-form/ Edited 11 October , 2021 by BarbaraG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I was going to mention about him too. There was a piece in the Newspaper Archive mentioning that. I'm guessing he would have been buried somewhere near Jarrow Edited 12 October , 2021 by temptage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
