I have just been researching the battle for Pozieres for my Mother who lost her Uncle 23 or 24 July 1916. She was wondering if the current activity at Fromelles may turn out to be the resting place of her Mother's Brother. So after a few hours I discovered, through Red Cross records, that he was missing in action and later presummed dead at Pozieres.... now, in addition to the information, I can show my Mum photos, many thanks Robyn, Regards Glynis Hello!

We lost one on 24th July 1916 in the battle for POZIERES. He has no known grave, and we have no way of ever being there to see the country for ourselves. Mnay thanks for such kindness.
