Seeking Grave Photos - 8x 11 Sqn Aircrew Killed 3-4 Oct 1918

[Buffnut453]

While writing up the history of a relative's service with 11 Sqn, I came across the sad account of 8 airmen who died in 2 mid-air collisions on consecutive days (3-4 Oct 1918).

I'm wondering if any of the kind GWF members out there might have photos of their headstones.  The personnel I'm looking for are:

Bagneux British Cemetery (all died 3 Oct)

2Lt Thomas Peacock 

2Lt George William Albert Kelty

Lt Walter Coons

Sgt Frank New

Grevillers British Cemetery (all died 4 Oct)

2Lt Donald Robert Phillips

2Lt William Connor

Lt B.S.B. Thomas MC

2Lt Cyril Edwin Spink

 

I realise the odds are remote...but it doesn't hurt to ask, right?  I'm particularly interested in William Connor, Thomas Peacock and George William Albert Kealty but, being greedy, will welcome any of the above.

Many thanks in advance,

Mark

Hi

Bagneux are all on Findagrave if that helps

https://www.findagrave.com/cemetery/2203121/bagneux-british-cemetery

 

Grevillers are all on Billiongraves

BUT they have been taken at strange angles etc.

Hi Graeme,

Many thanks for those links.  Of course the key pictures I need are at odd angles....I guess it wouldn't be funny otherwise!  Better than nothing, I suppose.  Maybe I'll be lucky and someone will be along with better pics for Grevillers.  

Again, appreciate the info and response.  

Kind regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,

Might it be worth contacting British War Graves? - link

Hi Chris,

Just wanted to thank you again for the pointer to British War Graves.  Had some nice initial communication with Mick McCann and then, a few days later, images of all the graves appeared in my inbox.  Great service from BWG, and Mick's an absolute star.

Kind regards,
