Finding Grandfather’s grave in France at Croisilles British Cemetery

1 Item

My maternal grandfather, Michael Gregory, served in France, and was a member of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers. He was killed in 1917 in the Cambrai Offensive, where he had fought for a whole year. Michael was married to Julia Bradshaw and they had three daughters. They lived in Dublin. A stonemason by profession, he had joined the army in defence of small nations. Michael is buried in Croisilles British Cemetery in Northern France. I visited the cemetery recently when a colleague looked him up on my behalf. I was very moved by the experience. || Greeting cards, embroidered
