Hi again Carol.
A lot of the graves at Billing Road Cemetery were hit by a
bomb in the War. Although all the cemeteries did have stones
removed after notice was given in the Newspapers for relatives
to be notified of removal.
I have found that Philip Stanley Pugh is noted in the Roll of Honour
I transcribed for the Town.
August 8th 1941
"SERGEANT-PILOT P.S.PUGH
Sergeant-Pilot
Philip Stanley
Pugh, of the Royal
