Andy, Might be able to help with this at sometime in the future. Not being an expert by any means on the army, I take it that 1 RUR relates to Royal Ulster Rifles? Clewer (St Andrew) Old Churchyard North West Corner of Church Jones 129585 1 RUR 20/2/1943
Andy, Is this your man, listed in the war graves list of St.Andrews Clewer. Had a lot of help from the Church Warden. JONES, Capt. Ian Russell Aylmer, 129585. 1st (Airborne) Bn. The Royal Ulster Rifles. 20th February, 1943. Age 26. Son of Felix Edward Aylmer Jones and Cecily Minnie Jane Jones, of Weybridge, Surrey; husband of Anne Margaret Jones of Weybridge. Near N.W. Corner of Church. It is in Section C Grave 42
Andy, Went down to St.Andrews Church, Windsor today and took a few photos, I was a bit surprised to see the grave was not the usual military type, also wondered why Jones was buried in Windsor and not Weybridge where his family lived.
Peter Thank you for those pictures, looks an idyllic spot. Apologies for not answering you but I have been abroad in the sun for last two weeks! Best Wishes and regards Andy
I can pop down to Watchfield sometime probably the weekend. It's actually in OXFORDSHIRE! It's where the JSCSC is. Watchfield Military Cemetery Grave 278 Richardson 3600656 AAC 6/6/1944
Owen I'm obliged (yet again!) Apologies for moving it into different county, but I think I took that from CWGC! Regards Andy
Mum popped over today with her dog in her little Daewoo Matiz. I suggested a run out to Watchfield with the kids so after getting the photo taken we played on the Airey Neave Memorial Play-park and had "elevensies" in Micky D's. Andy , do you want the full size image?
Owen What can I say! How convenient that Mum popped over! and I bet the kids loved the elevenses! I have taken the pics from the ones you posted which are absoilutely fine so no need for the full size one! And how did you manage not to get wet? Here in Essex its raining heavily, no itsd just stopped! but for how long Thanks again Owen Andy
