Would some kind person perhaps passing or visiting Spondon Cemetery, please obtain a jpeg of the headstone of one Sapper Frederick W. F. Tennison who died on active service here in Pembrokeshire in April of 1943. Full details of his death are known.
His final resting place is in Section E Grave 189 of Spondon Cemetery.
Tks in advance

There is a possibility that I'll be passing close to there in a couple of weeks time. By any chance do you have a plan of the cemetery or an idea of where Section E is in relation to the entrance? Derby Council Cemetery staff were very helpful in providing me with a plan for one of my searches.
-
Tks for your consideration in this matter, much appreicated. I will see if I can locate an email address for the cemetery, try and gather the info and be in touch as soon as anything comes to light.

Thanks for that link. I did find it early this afternoon and have long since sent them an email.

Again thanks for your efforts on my behalf.

That would be supper. I would not like Nell1850 to think that I can not be patient, nor would I like to put a number of people to extra trouble on my behalf chasing the same jpeg for me.
I deeply appreicate the offers of both yourself and Nell1850, if you are able to do it this week without inconveneince, supper, if not I can be as patient as required until Nell1850 gets there.
Tks in advance
