Sleepyhillock Cemetery Montrose
« on: Thursday 03 September 20 14:22 BST (UK) »
Hi All

In July 1941 four German airmen were buried at Sleepyhillock, their plane crashed near St Cyrus

In 1960s (possibly 1963) they were re-interred to Cannock Chase in Staffordshire


Any idea how to find out when in the 60s they were moved?

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
