Help required: Accrington cemetery
 
I live in the South East but I'd like a photo of a particular grave at Accringtom Cemetary. Can anyone help? The grave is that of Harold Robert Joseph Yerdon and its precise reference is "Sec. D. Plot K. Grave 326". If anyone could send me a digital image of the grave, I'd be very grateful.

Regards

Alan

That site gives you info but no images, would you still like an actual photo?

That'd be great, thanks very much. It's not at all urgent though if you find you're short of time or anything.

Well done KSH.

As an aside I wonder if earthdog can tell us the story behind the grave. Interesting that a member of the Canadian Air Force is buried in Accrington Cemetry. Does this mean he was killed in action near here ?
