busterwood Posted 26 October , 2022 Author Share Posted 26 October , 2022 Again so much help, I got the R.E Rly Coy diaries, unfortunately were very sparse, each page being a full month with a lack of information unfortunately. With John serving previously with 17th Bn NF Pioneer Bn, they were attached to the 277th R.E . On checking on CWGC I noticed buried either side of John is another chap from 277th who died the day after John. Also a chap from 17th Pioneer Bn NF, two days later…. I presumed they may have been wounded together, hospitalised in Poperinghe and all passed away within days of each other thus buried together. Just a hunch, but thought I would reverse search using 17th Bn diary see if anything crops up 🤷🏻♂️ I really must Thank You with my heartiest of appreciation for your assistance. Let’s hope I can come up trumps All the best Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
