The CWGC has updated us with news of
Samuel Sharp and
Robert Yaxley
regarding the placing of headstones for them both
" Just thought I would give you a progress report. I have looked at the cemetery file
and noticed that permission to erect the headstones were given in January 2009,
the headstones were manufactured in France and were shipped on 4 March 2009.
We are still waiting to hear when they will be erected." Maria Coules CWCG

St Mary's churchyard
After much research and hard work the Commonwealth War Graves Commission
has agreed to place headstones on the graves of both
Samuel Sharp
and
Robert Yaxley
who both died shortly after WWI due to injuries sustained during that war
and are buried in unmarked graves in St.Mary's churchyard
It is expected that the headstones will be placed by the Commonwealth
War Graves Commission in the churchyard at some point in 2009
