Pte. Walter Lenton

British Army 1st. Btn. Lincolnshire Regiment

from:Little London, Benwick, Cambridgeshire

(d.16th April 1918)

Walter Lenton, my grandfather, is commemorated on the wall of the Tyne Cot cemetery. My mother is in her hundredth year and remembers that when she was a child her father was reported missing for about a year. I am concerned therefore, as to the accuracy of the date of death given shown in the Government register. Is there any way it can be verified and is it possible to establish exactly where he died?

Update: Commonwealth War Graves deal with all memorials, they can be contacted via their website.
