Yorkshire
Regiment War Graves, - Bebington Cemetery, Cheshire |
Bebington Cemetery, Cheshire, contains 149 burials from both the First and Second World Wars.
There do not appear to be any headstones for the First World War Burials, though there is a screen wall on which the names of 17 men from the First World War are commemorated. The screen wall is situated beside a stone Cross of Sacrifice.
Amongst the names commemorated is one for a soldier who served with the Yorkhsire Regiment.
We are very grateful to Richard Roberts, <richard.nsw@googlemail.com>, for providing the photographs.
