Benjamin Frederick Danks
« on: Friday 12 February 21 20:59 GMT (UK) »
Commonwealth War Graves Commission are appealing for relatives of Gunner Danks - service no - 697203 - Royal Field Artillery - died 28/3/1919 - buried Christchurch (Holy Trinity) Churchyard. Monmouthshire.

The private memorial marking the grave of Gunner Danks no longer provides adequate commemoration. The commission is in the process of producing a headstone to mark his grave.
