Beaulincourt Beaulencort Cemetery special memorials

[steandpaula]

Hi, does anyone have a picture or info recorded of/on these memorials please?

Trying to find if any unidentified 5th Manchesters maybe there from 31st Aug 1918.

Thanks

Jrmh thank you and I  was just about to say I'd found the names on the special memorials, all named and no Manchesters, so next question would be, are there any headstones to unknown Manchesters? Will probably need someone on the ground to have a look I suspect! Thanks again for getting back.

You're welcome and I think that is likely the only way to trace them. There was a thread on the subject of tracing headstones of the unknown I believe.

This can also be done from your easy chair at home...

Check the CWGC documents for the cemetery, Richard Laughton downloaded a lot of these.
The files for Beaulencourt British Cemetery are here:

Use the GRRF forms, these contain all graves. The COG-BR files have more information for the graves which were added after the war.

Hope this helps,

Luc.

Thanks Luc, that's great, it'll give me something to do this morning!
