Thank you-I had seen this one; for some reason my great grandad was killed fighting in this brigade even though he was Scottish and lived in Northumberland! Good link

Thankyou one of my grandmother's brothers George Blacker was killed in the great war.  The commonwealth war graves commission site let me print a certificate showing a picture of the cemetery in Belgium where he is buried.
