I'll have a bash at these, if I can. Kilcullen Ballitore church is on the road to Athy Co. Kildare. I might be down that way soon. Limericks a bit of a journey but I'll see what I can do!

Hi Ger, Thanks for the offer, you know anyway there's no hurry and no pressure. [I myself have yet to find one near Newry!] dbf
Hi Gerard, There are three who served with the North Irish Horse in World War I who rest forever in the Republic. If you or any other is able to photograph the headstones I will be most grateful.

I now have only 5 RAAF lads left to complete in Northern Ireland. Gotthard has been good enough to get me those at Drumachose & Limavady in Derry with another pledge coming to fruition for Killead Presbyterian & Killead (St Catherine). These are the remaining burials I have yet to have photos for and would be grateful if someone is able to complete them for me: <table x:str="" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 904pt;" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="1205"><col style="width: 218pt;" width="291"> <col style="width: 48pt;" span="2" width="64"> <col style="width: 53pt;" width="71"> <col style="width: 89pt;" width="118"> <col style="width: 335pt;" width="447"> <col style="width: 19pt;" width="25"> <col style="width: 94pt;" width="125"> <tbody><tr style="height: 12.75pt;" height="17"> <td class="xl22" style="height: 12.75pt; width: 218pt;" height="17" width="291">FRASER, ALEXANDER WILLIAM (DFC & BAR)</td> <td class="xl22" style="border-left: medium none; width: 48pt;" x:num="" width="64">404063</td> <td class="xl24" style="width: 48pt;" width="64">1674 HCU</td> <td class="xl25" style="width: 53pt;" x:num="16257" width="71">4/07/1944</td> <td class="xl23" style="border-left: medium none; width: 89pt;" width="118">Sec.

I was just about to start another thread! Now I have got my act together I wonder if anyone is able to assist with pictures from the following cemeteries. Pictures of the headstones and a few general views of the cemetery would be appreciated.

Spidge & Andy Just been around Lisburn cemetry. There is no one specific military plot, but there are quite a few military headstones. Unfortunately I could not find Messrs Bradshaw and Fraser. I shall enquire with the council as to the exact layout of the cemetry (no plans or markers on site) and get back to you Spidge I'll try and get down to Bally halbert in the next week or two also Yours, Capt Bill, resident of Lisburn Co Antrim

Just wondering if you think then that these guys have family headstones ... I found one cwgc entry in Rostrevor in this category. http://www.ww2talk.com/forum/war-cemeteries-war-memorial-research/14078-george-lysaght-hosford-steede-rafvr.html Hope the council come up with the goods, for it would then be a matter of walking the rows ...
