She died in France and is remembered on her father's grave marker and the local Helensburgh War Memorial. She was educated at Knole Hall High School, Bournemouth and that is why she is listed in the Bournemouth Book of Remembrance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just did a search of the forum and the only mentions that I saw were those old ones from you which were probably posted before you were sure.

Regards Kenny Hello Kenny, CUPAR - Beatrice Victoria Campbell, QMAAC and Helen Milne, QAIMNS. Their names are said to be on the Cupar War Memorial, Nicholson Park, Cupar. A photograph of their names on it required. There may be an anomoly here as Helen Milne's name may be on the WW2 list. If so, it begs the question whether this is a mistake or two ladies with same name. I must do more research on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello George, Thank you for the offer. My full listing is one page back. France has been pretty well covered in the past so far as graves are concerned but I do have requirements from , Chaumont, Estaires (2), Ecrouves (Muerthe-et-Moselle), Gironde, Hemévez (Normandy), Lamalou, Le Havre, Mentone, Mouleydier (Dordogne), Saint Amand les Aux, Sallanches. As for Suffolk I have two requirements. Unfortunately one may prove difficult. Kate Marie Crawford was killed by a zeppelin on the 9th August 1915 and is buried in St. Edmund's churchyard, Kessingland. Someone has already searched the cemetery without success so she may be in an unmarked grave. The other is Janet Holme Pilkington, VAD, who died in 1916. She is buried in All Saints churchyard, Saxtead and I need a photograph of her grave/headstone. Her father was the vicar of Framlingham so there should be better luck with that one.

She should be getting a CWGC marker in due course but it could be several years before it is ready (unless you know different from the local news).

I wonder if the CWGC will add her name to her son's CWGC headstone. It seems the most likely direction that they will take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
