    1. [GREATWAR] HALLIDAY (1873-1917) Luckington, Wiltshire
    2. Dean Martin Rees Newman
    3. Greetings from the "Land Down Under" (Lat 17.5s Long 146.1e) Hi to All, Presently looking for a photograph of a grave in Wiltshire in Luckington (St. Marys) Churchyard cemetery belonging to one: HALLIDAY Henry Frederick (1873-1917) Gunner 20084 8th FAB Australian Imperial Force. He died in nearby Bristol (Beaufort War Hospital) on 24 September 1917. According to my information he was buried in a family grave (presumably HALLIDAY) on 30 September 1917 after a private family service organised by his cousin Mrs E Bird of Luckington. According to CWGC there are only two war dead buried in the cemetery. Presumably the grave has a headstone provided and maintained by the CWGC - this from correspondence I have sighted from 1923. Anyone live near there and willing to investigate and supply photograph, please? Seek hard and stay alert Dean Newman, North Queensland Australia.
