Well done. I was unclear where the link to the CWGC signs lay.
Interesting that the four at Thornhill are all Canadians. _________________ Jim

Jim,
The cwg's at Morton Cemetery are found in Thornhill Dumfriesshire and we have 11 graves, with 2 orginal graves and 9 family graves. We have 9 men and two woman. All born in Scotland.
Penpont Churchyard also in Dumfriesshire. We have 4 graves here, 2 orginal and 2 family.
When saying 4 Canadians think you must mean Thornhill in Ayrshire; sorry I forgot to add Dumfriesshire yesterday on my note when saying where all signs where.

Yes my mistake, wrong Thornhill. It is a shame that 9 of the 11 declined a IWGC (CWGC ) headstone. _________________ Jim
