Sorry Gary - just realised that Evelina had answered your query. It is certainly a puzzle as there are not many churches in the area - I really thought they would be at Caputh. An unmarked grave perhaps? Do you know if your family had links with other villages in the area? Chirp

Hi Alec, Can you give me more information as there are a few Forbes and Rodgers in Caputh.
However I found 2 on the same memorial, this is inside the church, on the North Wall, both died in the great war. Are those your ones? Sgt. Major John S Forbes, L.S. and Pte. Drummond K Rogers, R.H.
Cheers Evelina

Hi again Evelina,
That will teach me to look at all the posts before replying!
These are the two gentlemen in question and are obviously on family stones, I will send a PM if you would be kind enough to send me a map.
Thanks ever so much for your help.
Kind Regards
Alec
