This page details the presence of fallen service
personnel who have not got a CWGC memorial headstone
in Heworth St Mary churchyard, but are commemorated
on a family
gravestone. There are many family plots with details
of a family member or relative who was killed either
in battle or by enemy action. I can only record them
as I find them, as there is only this way or
searching the MIs. If you know of any such
person/s I have not entered on here, please contact
me with the details and location of the grave. |
