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

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.
