🚨NEXT OF KIN APPEAL: Can you help us trace the families of these fallen heroes?
The Council’s Heritage Service are appealing for help to trace the next of kin or living relatives of three WWI personnel buried in Trealaw Cemetery.
Following recent research, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) has identified these individuals as serving personnel whose graves are to be marked with Commission headstones.
CWGC is now in the process of producing headstones for their graves, and we would like to help identify any living family members connected to them.
