Roy Evans Posted 5 September , 2006 Share Posted 5 September , 2006 Andy, A bit unusual this one! I picked up this picture the other day and would like if possible a modern-day picture of the same graves. The front grave is Pte F W Dicken, 8th South Staffs who is in grave lll. E. 18 The graves behind him are (from left) 1. ?, 2. T.S. Holmes. 3. T Cartwright, 4. Horton / Heaton?, 5. ?, 6. Hall?, 7. Owen?' 8. Farr?, 9. ? I realise that it's a big ask so don't worry if you can't do it but if you can I'll buy you a pint at the October meeting of the South Staffs Pals.
