Can anybody help please.
A few years ago on here, probably 2014, there was a link to a list of all the V.C. winners cemetery details. I've searched all over for it and cannot find it.
It had the locations of cemetries and even a description of which area they were in.
I still have a few locations from last time I looked and cleared up a few of the headstones and surrounding areas.
Edit to say I've tried the usual Goole and war graves web sites. Maybe my googling skills aren't very good.

As it's 100 yrs since the end of WW1. I would like to find some of the other hidden/overgrown graves and make them more presentable.
In honour of those who made the ultimate sacrfice
Thanks Andy.



They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning.
We will remember them.

Thanks for that Alpacaman.

It was a different one to that, it had a really good decription of the location in the graveyard.
Will keep looking.

At least it gives me a few more to look for.
Once again thanks.

AndyW you are a TOP man and deserve a virtual pint. So here it is; beer

Got a friend mid 50's and he's doing every war graves site in France and Belgium for no other reason than he thinks he should. Pint for him too.

Have a check here. I think there is a user called Drew, who had a personal project
To document all graves of VC recipients.
