Title: CWGC
Post by: larkspur on Tuesday 24 February 15 10:08 GMT (UK)

Just a query and wondering if anyone else had the same or similar situation.
My great Uncle was buried at Oostaverne Wood Cemetery. His name was Alexander, but the stone has his initial as H. I was very kindly sent a photograph of it. All the other details- regiment, etc are correct. Do I get in touch with the CWGC? Is it all too late?

No, it's not too late, but you will have to provide evidence:
