BUCQUOY ROAD CEMETERY, FICHEUX FRANCE

[Otter42]

Just wondering if anyone lived close by this cemetery or maybe visiting it. My Grand Uncle is buried there, and would love a photo of his grave. I think there in the process of photographing the headstones, but not sure how lone it may take. Here is a map of where he's buried,  thanks for any help. Ken

Hi Ken.

 

The War Graves Photographic Project have Frederick's headstone and will send you a high resolution copy for a small fee, I believe £4.00. I have used them perviously and been very happy with the service.

Hi Ken.

 

If you haven't already applied through the twgpp which costs, this organisation will supply an image free of charge https://britishwargraves.co.uk

 

I have used them and the service is great.

just checked and they have Bucquoy Road Cemetery.... whither Canadian graves are included is not clear. Maybe worth a request anyway.

Gunner, was contacted by someone at the site you gave me. He redirected me to this site that handles Canadian war dead, http://www.mapleleaflegacy.ca/wp/

I was able to find my great uncles headstone there. Thanks so much!
