[Mark Abbott]

Thanks to Trish, who answered a post regarding the above (http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=751611.new;topicseen#new) I believe that the man I am researching died in Scotland:-

Harold Louis Snedker
Death Age: 59, Birth Date: c 1897
Burial Date: 28 Sep 1956
Burial Place: Lockerbie, Dumfries-shire, Scotland
Interment Number: 1505
Grave number:   179, Section: 60
Cemetery:   Rigg Cemetery

"My" Harold was awarded a Distinguished Conduct Medal in WW1 and I was wondering if any member who is local to Rigg Cemetery could check the inscription for me?

Best
