    Now I have finally got my act together I would be grateful if anyone could assist with providing pictures of headstones from the following cemeteries.A couple of general views of the cemetery/churchyard would also be appreciated.

    Kingsdown (St Edmund) Churchyard

    I'm afraid I don't know if any of the ones shown are in East Kent! I was never any good at geography!
    If you are near any of the above anything would be gratefully received

    Well Sturry and Whitstable kind if are-ish, just surprised there weren't any needed on the east coast, ie: Margate to Folkestone.

    I'll see if I can't manage Sturry and Whitstable for you, any idea where the graveyards are?

    A few of my RAAF lads are in the East however Maidstone and Orpington are getting closer to the big smoke.

    Leysdown St Clement seems a bit difficult to get to.

    Aylesham is controlled by Dover City Council.

    If you can assist with some of these RAAF lads I would be most appreciative.

    Cheers

    I posted some RAAF ones on here for Spidge from Shorncliffe.

    One he asked for I could not find in that particular plot....It wasn't there.

    There was one I put on here that was RAAF at Shorncliffe that Spidge didn't ask for.

    Hi Drew,

    Found them under another thread - They are now catalogued - Thank you.

    I may try and contact Shorncliffe to see if the grave of John James Forrest-Dunlop has been moved/removed.

    Cheers

    I'll get you general pics of the cemetery shortly. Could not do them today as a funeral was taking place.

    I'm still waiting for the Parish Office at St.Paulinhus to tell me where the location of the special memorial is for Brown 74795. Was the picture of the church from their website usable or would you like me to do one when I find the memorial?

    Do you still need one of Morter 1579388 at Beckenham Crematorium & Cemetery? If so, I'll add it to my to do list and will make a trip over there soon.

    Robert

    In a village called Eynsford, a couple of miles away from Brands Hatch motoring racing circuit. Sevenoaks to the south, Dartford to the east and Orpington to the West. Biggin Hill about 10 miles also.

    The headstone shots of Fraser, Gilbert and Mackay I promised are winging their way to you as as I write.

    Question? - Are there others gathering pictures of all CWGC listed casualties in each cemetery. It seems to make sense to get a printout and whilst you are there to do them all in one go. I would assume that this is the case and if so, where do you send the photos?

    I've only just started to do this so far for you and Andy, so a relative novice.

    Robert.
