Graveyards and Gravestones / German War Grave in Bridlington Cemetery
« on: Tuesday 28 November 17 12:59 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone help? do you know if there is an unknown German War grave (EIN DEUTSCHER SOLDAT) in the war grave plot at Bridlington Cemetery. I know 4 German airmen were buried there in three graves on 19 August 1940. The two named airmen were transferred to Cannock Chase in 1964-66, i am lead to believe the two unknown in the one grave are still at Bridlington? I am planning a visit to the area on Sunday for research for my book and don't want to spend hours searching for something that is not there.

I have requested the information from the council but as yet i have had no reply.

« on: Friday 25 November 11 13:26 GMT (UK)  »
Would any one have any information on two VAD nurses i am researching. They both worked at the racecourse hospital Cheltenham during WW1. I have contacted the British red cross society for service records and i am awaiting a reply.

The nurses are Miss M McClymont Reid who was mentioned in dispatches.

Dorothy Edith Griffith-Jones who lived in Cheltenham when she died in 1962. I also have a thread open on Dorothy in the Bedfordshire section where she lived as a child. And have gaind some useful information.

Any information or photos of the nurses would be most helpful.

Bedfordshire / dorothy griffith-jones

Can anyone help me please, I am researching a red cross nurse who i believe lived at the Bury Godlington called Dorothy E Griffith-Jones. The family name was changed from Jones by deed poll after her father died in the late 1890's early 1900's. I also believe she was working at the racecourse hospital in Cheltenham. I am also looking for any information or newspaper reports on Dorothy and her immediate family.
