Names of the missing

[Guest DianeHatwell]

I am looking for a name on the no known graves memorials. He was an Australian soldier called Frederick Haley whose body was missing for 20 years after Mouquet Farm. He now has a grave, but i wondered if i could find where his name might have been placed before they found his body. Any ideas? Comm War Graves just lists the grave.

Thank you gentlemen for all your help. I had a feeling he would be listed somewhere so Villers Bretonneux is great. thank you for all the details. I did know the cemetery, but would love a picture of his grave if it could be arranged. what angels you all are. Sorry to be slow replying.
