Dear Sir

Sidney has recently been accepted by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission as a casualty of the Great War - however he is listed as having no known grave. He died in Plymouth, but I believe that his body was returned home at Lydney for burial. I wonder if you may have any details of his grave. My thanks
