War Grave photos - Manchester Regiment and Lancashire Fusiliers
« on: Thursday 16 August 07 13:12 UTC (UK) »

Hi

I have recently taken War Grave Photo's for the Manchester Regiment and the Lancashire Fusiliers, with help from other Root Chatters.

Whilst doing these I also have some others, that have come of the Screen Walls, which include Cheshire, Royal Navy, West Yorkshire, Royal Engineers, Royal Army Medical Corps, Royal Defence Corps, Welch Regiment and many more.

Cemetery's covered are

Agecroft
Southern
Gorton
Weaste
Philips Park and
Bury Cemetery (Redvale)

If anyone is looking for a Photo, please post and I will look at my data.

Hoping this helps people who can't get to these Cemeterys, but would like a photo for their Files.

AS you gave no clues to which "ILES " you are looking for and i take you have not bothered to look on the CWGC site, you may as well once you do search the CWGC site check out this site also. You will have to pay for any pictures of there as either downloads or hard copies. Downloads cost £3.

hello there Kalasira

The photos of Flatiron cemetry where my grandfather is buried are similar to the ones on this site   
  http://www.cwgc.org/search/certificate.aspx?casualty=557043

 I am not sure if you can get a link from what I have just given you.  It shows Flatiron Cemetry from a distance. Some of the photos that I have show some graves but not clearly only the one of my grandfathers.  Some friends of mine went to France and called by the cemetry for me.

If you could find out a little more about the Iles you are looking for, then try this site http://www.cwgc.org

Don't give up on Roots chat, there are truely some wonderful helpful people on here.  The information that I have had back has been truely amazing and sometimes the information that I had given was quite sparse.

Cheers
Avril Smiley

Hi Ken, i was not been rude or sexist. If it were me i would have checked the link that was posted on this thread by some one ells as well as myself before i asked on this thread. I also posted a new link for pictures of war graves on this thread too. As i have photographed nearly all of the CWGC and privet graves for men who died in ww1 & 2 in most of Manchester's cemetery's, you think i would have sent them on to this person at the same time i sent them all the other records and the Medal Card for there ILES family and including going and photographing a family grave for them?. It has nothing to do with me been rude to a newbie , but trying to save other people time. I am sure i would get shot down if i kept asking people on here the same question. I am only to happy to help any one, but common sense must come first.

Hi everyone, You all seem so knowledgible so perhaps you could comment on my question.  My grandfather James Buckby was firstly in the Manchester Reg and then the East Yorkshire RFeg.  I understand he fought at the Somme.  Apparently he was mentioned in despatches for going over the top to rescue colleagues.  Hde was made up to a Srg.  I have only been able to trace his medal card and nothing else.  ? Do any of you know which records were destroyed for WW1 as this can be one explanation.  His details are as follows
James Buckby
Regiment or Corps: Manchester Regiment, East Yorkshire Regiment 
Regimental number: 31018, 30122 

Cheers everyone
