ROBERT CLARK WW1 Bathgate.
« on: Friday 12 August 22 17:31 BST (UK) »
ROBERT CLARK died on 3 April 1917 while serving with the Cameronians (Scottish Rifles). Aged 25, he was the son of Robert and Catherine Clark who lived at 1 Violet Bank, Mid Street, Bathgate, West Lothian.

Can anyone out there help me to find where Robert Clark is buried?

Thank you to all concerned. That is almost certainly the man I am looking for. I will pursue with West Lothian Council
