ANY Citizen readers who wish to find out where their relatives are buried and all particulars of when and where they were killed during the First World War, should write to Mr Ron Bratherton, The War Research Society, 40 Greenway, Coppenhall, Crewe, Cheshire.
I had two uncles killed in the First World War and always wondered where their graves were.
My daughter saw the above address in the Citizen and I wrote, enclosing SAE.
A few days later I had all the information I needed, even though I had few details to give and didn't even know what regiment they were in.
My mother would have loved to have known where they were buried but there wasn't the technology when she was alive that there is now - it's so easy.
Mrs JR Lewis,
Southdown Drive,
Thornton Cleveleys.
