Pte. Horatio Nelson Cross
British Army 2nd Battalion Ox & Bucks Light Infantry
from:Westbury Road, Nuneaton, Warwickshire
(d.14th Mar 1915)
Horatio Cross was my Great-grandfather whose history I am just learning about. Unfortunately, his medals have been mislaid over the years but his wife had had them framed along with a regimental photo of which I have a small copy. I have information stating he is buried in Bethune Town Cemetery, Pas de Calais, France. Bethune is 29km north of Arras. I would love to find out if this is near where he fought, or if he was taken there after being injured. As I said this is early days for me in my quest for info so if anyone can be of any help I'd be really grateful.
