Can any one who is visiting the WW1 cemeteries in France please help?

I would like pictures of the following Gravemarkers or Gravestones of men from my family:

1) 34076 Pte T. Swift, 9th Bn KOYLI, Killed, 9th April 1917, buried: D. 32, Cojeul British Cemetery, St Martin-Sur-Cojeul, Pas de Calais, France.

2) 62852 Pte J. Hickey, MGC, D.O.W, 22 December 1917, buried: I. E. 26. Hermes Hill British Cemetery, Pas de Calais, France.

3) 23834 Pte J. Marsden, 10th West Yorks, Killed 1st July 1916, buried: VII. D. 5. Danzig Alley Cemetery, Mametz, France.

It is rather difficult living in NZ to do this myself. I would re-emburse for any costs of photographs.

Thank you :blink:

Ian,

I should be spending a day on the Somme in September (It's only a stopover as myself and the missus are visiting her uncles grave near Paris), if I do you can count on me to take a photo of Pte Marsden's headstone - if you like I can video as well.

I am intending to make the trip the 1st week of September, feel free to pm or email me nearer the time - It'll be a pleasure to help out one of the Pals!

Steve
