Which would be nice to have

Do you know which cemetary - which would narrow it down a bit - but it looks as if all entries are listed 5 - 10 times

As Jonesey said earlier there are lots come up when you search
British Commonwealth War Graves Registers, 1914-1918 but they don't relate to a Stanley Stephen Ayres, there is something strange going on.

I can't get anything else to come up either apart from the ones we have told you about.

Perhaps you could take a 14 day trial to check it out.
