Primary school children from Folkestone area again today honoured the memory of hundreds of Canadian soldiers, who died in the First World War and are buried in Shorncliffe cemetery. Individual posies of flowers were placed on each grave.

I am willing to photograph any of these graves if someone would like an ancestor's name checked.

Thank you Gwyn for posting info about our Canadian soldiers re WW1....so comforting & such a nice gesture of those young school children to remember & honour our fallen soldiers <3
Thankfully my husbands maternal Grandfather survived WW1 & made it back home to Manitoba Canada. He was a veteran of Vimy Ridge, of native ancestry & used as a sharp shooter/sniper while in active service.

K/Regards,
A/Canuck :-)
