Photo de Stanley Cornell
Stanley Anderson Cornell is standing at the back on the right as you look at the photo.<P> Photograph probably taken in France year unknown, although he appears to be wearing the 1914/15 medal ribbon which were issued in 1917. -
Stanley Anderson Cornell's original grave and wooden cross taken just after his burial in 1919/20.<P> The grave behind Cornell was the end of the last WW1 row of casualties for Canadian soldiers, most have a February 1919 date whereas the row for Cornell is all January 1919.<P> The trees in the background were removed after WW2 to allow space for WW2 casualties and the footpath you can see on the right was also removed at the same time for the same reason so Cornell is now three headstones in from the end of the row whereas after WW1 he was positioned on the end of the row. -
