Anybody in the area of Dunure Cemetery or due to survey it?
I would be most grateful for a photograph of the grave of Flight Captain, The Hon. Margaret Fairweather and her Husband Captain Douglas Fairweather both WW2, Air Transport Auxiliary. Grave Sctn.E (White) No.295.
Margaret was the daughter of 1st Viscount Runciman of Doxford.
Fingers crossed.

Is this photo in the existing Dunure Cemetery thread?
If it is, can we avoid duplication of threads?
This request should also have been posted in the "Queries and Requests" section and NOT in the main photos section.
Thanks,
David |
