Canada - RAAF Headstone Photos Required!

Jarvis (Knox Presbyterian Church) Cemetery - Completed

Thank you for the photos Randy (17thDYRCH)

Only ones now left in Ontario are at Aylmer which is on Highway 73 about 20kms from Lake Erie.

 

Fantastic effort from everyone concerned.

Have now achieved 103 of the 146 required.

The majority now are situated in Quebec and Saskatchewan.

Cheers

Geoff

 

Geoff,
Is Aylmer still outstanding? I'm headed down that way in a few weeks and can get those pics if required.

Hi Tim,

Aylmer is still outstanding. The was someone else who was trying to see if he could get there but it was not certain. I will let him know that you will be there in a few weeks.

Cheers

Hi Geoff,

Geoff,

This headstone appears to be a new replacement so if it is not in your files, here is a current photo.

Great pick up Canuck.

I reported this incorrect service number early this year. The CWGC will possibly advise me later on when they receive the paperwork.

I will have to get Smudger to check my Reichswald Forest error next time he is there and see if it has been replaced.

 

I had a query today of what photos I still require in Canada so I thought I would condense them into one post.

Of the original 146 in the 10 provinces, only 28 remain in 5 provinces. If you can assist or know someone that would, please let me know.

Hi Kevin,

Fantastic!

3 continents in one day.:smile:

Really appreciate your help.

Cheers

Geoff

 

Thought I would bring the remaining Canadian Headstones to the top.

Whilst they are mainly in Quebec and Saskatchewan there are a few others.

Go to post number 56 for the updated listed.

If anyone can assist or knows someone that can, I would be most appreciative.

Cheers

Geoff

 

Remaining Headstone photo requirements in Canada
I had a query today (from FACEBOOK) of what photos I still require in Canada so I thought I would place the condensed remainder again.

Of the original 146 in the 10 provinces, only 21 remain in 5 provinces. If you can assist or know someone that would, please let me know.
