A few weeks ago someone put a thread up telling you about a site that had WWI graves & pictures on, I never saved it & can't find it. Does anyone remember the site please. Thanks, Hilary.

Thanks for that address but thought it was a different one. I got a photo up of a grave but stupidly did'nt save address. Will have a go at googling. Hilary.

The CWGC site does have photos of some of the graves, but it isn't always obvious - they're usually part of the ''Certificate''. When it's a name on the memorial at Thiepval, for instance, they just have a photo of the memorial. (With over 70,000 names there, you can understand why they don't have lots of individual shots of the inscriptions.) Christine
