Relation Adele is aware on https://www.facebook.com/groups/lurganancestry/posts/1587018958665309/ she messaged me to thank, but thanks are really due to you as saw here first. The grave is presently unmarked as the small headstone was badly vandalised.

Isobel on Friends of Shankill Graveyard (Lurgan) has since re-posted her Facebook group re.Robert Black.
Details from Shankill Register:
Robert Black, a 28 year old bachelor, of Portadown Road, Lurgan, Carter, died 28th December 1916 of “wounds in battle,” buried 30th December.

That's great. Nice to see these men are not forgotten and especially good if a relative is present at a dedication service of a headstone or special plaque.  :)

Thank You

His death record differs slightly.
He was 27 yrs, a car driver and his cause of death was heart disease and anasarca. His mother Ellen was the informant. Registered 17 January 1917.
