I live in Bronllys, and often walk to that quiet corner of the churchyard where the unmarked graves lie.  A few of them do have small engraved  plaques attached, but many are just numbers.  If I can help anyone with an interest in those laid to rest here, I would be  happy to do so, and to take any photographs required.

Regards,

Hi Steve

Certainly I'll check that out and take a photo.  Will post again in a few days.

Hi Steve
Below are two photos of the grave of Frank Canipane at St Mary's Church, Bronllys.  One shows the location - it is facing the entrance to the churchyard - and the second is a close-up.  The weather was so gloomy this morning that I was struggling to override the flash, so I apologise for the fact that they are not brilliant.      I am hoping to go back over the weekend if the sun is shining so that I can post some better images which include the entire  MN insignia. 

Regards,
Greensleeves
