I knew my gt grandfather was buried in Dury Crucifix cemetary, but it was with great joy that of the three featured graves ,that his was the first one, that of Pte Arthur Ernest Tebbutt killed in action 2nd September 1918, until members of the family can make a trip to his grave at least we can see the grave and its surroundings, so thanks very much.

I was surprised and pleased to see a picture of my great, great uncle's grave stone on your website, Victor Storrow. I have a picture of his which he framed not long before he went to war. It has a picture of a young boy backed against a door besieged by a goup of snowballers. The motto reads,"How can man die better than facing fearful odds" Perhaps he new his potential fate too well ? He clearly lies close to many who lost their life on the same day.

It's a great pleasure to have so much information to hand. For some one who has been to the War graves on several occasions it is very useful to have sites just like this which contribute such a lot of helpful advice and information

As the son of a soldier and a retred regular army man I thank you for the humble chance of standing (so to speak) where my forebears and roll models stood.

Thank you for a well informed and easily navigated site. Having visited most of the areas around Serre, Beaumont Hamel, Theipval and the museum in Albert I would highly reccomend anyone who hasn't already, visit the ground our brave lads lay under. A very moving experience.

My Dad's cousin was killed at Bullecourt. Is there a cemetery here with names or are they not known? He is mentioned on the memorial wall at Villers-Bretoneux. I have learnt a lot from reading your website.

A great pleasure to see you again this April at the dedications of the three memorials to the 15th Battalion CEF (48th Highlanders of Canada). Your website is outstanding and many thanks for the excellent coverage of The Crow's Nest ceremonies. Looking forward to the article and pictures on the Ypres memorial dedications. Keep up the great work and we look forward to working with you again on Festubert and Mt Sorrel.

Thank you for such an informative easy-to-use website. It was wonderful to be able to read about the battle at Bullecourt where my Grandfather and my Great Uncle were taken Prisoner. It makes it easier to picture what happened and the environment and chain of events. I wish there might be more information just to tell what happened to those captured. He wrote a very interesting letter home to his parents which we have in our possession that tells the chapters that happened between capture at Bullecourt and his return eventually, home. I would like to hear the factual events, his letter was more about living through it.

I am so impressed with this site. My father was wounded at Mouquet Farm and eventually had to have his leg amputated. This site makes it all very real to me, as I read my father's diary written in these very places.

Fascinating site, keep up the good work. It's a small world... on your Tyne Cot page you have a photgraph of my Great Uncles' headstone - Private Fred Burrows. Fred's father, Joshua, lived to see seven of his children buried.

A great website and a most useful resource. Particularly interesting are the headstone photos. How many long hours of toil went into this we'll never know but the end result is quite remarkable ! Congrats and many thanks. Lest we forget.

Thank you for the kind words and thoughts concerning my son Michael. My dear friend Capt Marty Lorenzo visited the Belleau Wood Battlefield with you and told his story. This is hallowed ground for Marines. My Uncle, Don Latter was with the CEF in the 28th Armoured Regiment in WWII and lost his leg and many fingers when his Sherman tank was shot out from under him, all at the age of 17. My son was 20 and had 1 tour of duty in Iraq under his belt. Thank you for remembering him. Michael Washington
