Default West Cemetery

I was up at the cemetery this afternoon and noticed one headstone that I must have walked past any number of times. It is for the Dawson family and two of them are on the sister site. George Dawson, the father died in 1907 from injuries received at Newburgh Colliery and his son James was killed in 1915 in the Dardanelles, aged 19. He was in the RND, Collingwood Battalion.
Not far from this headstone was one to JS Pratt, another WW1 casualty, in the RND, Howe Battalion, killed in Flanders.

Have you photographed either of these yet, Coquet?
