    Kieron, they have it on the WGPP site, search for Hanover cemetery on the site. It gives the date 28/03/1953, Derek.

    To All

    In Hannover (Limmer) we have two cemeteries,

    1.) the HANNOVER WAR CEMETERY and
    2.) the BRITISH MILITARY CEMETERY LIMMER (post war)

    at the same location.

    The weather today was not the best, clouds and sunshine are changing everytime, so I took only a few pics.

    Hi Kieron,

    Two different cemeteries and no date of death, that was my problem. I did not find the gravestone.
    Now, when I read the other thread, with the day of death, I'm sure, I will find the grave. I will go back to the cemetery when the weather is sunny during the whole day.

    Hi Paul,

    Better luck to You,
    I got some pics for You. I was a little bit short in time, so I took only three pics today. But I will go back later, seems to be a good job to take fotos from gravestones.B)

    Hi looking for a photo of this grave please:
    Flying Officer (Pilot) Lawrence Firge LEGACE no J/22893
    Grave Section 6
    Grave Row C
    Grave Number 7

    My father's cousin, he was 23 when he died. His brother is still alive and would very much like to see a photo of the grave as he has never travelled to Germany and is unable to. I would like to find out more about him if possible.
    Thanking you in advance for your assistance.

    I wondered if anyone would be able to help me in locating a grave for a relative, whose daughter is buried at British Military Cemetery in Limmer? Id really like to get hold of a photo of her grave if anyone would be good enough to visit for me?

    Thanks
