Grimsby Scartho Road Cemetery
Grimsby Scartho Road Cemetery
Contains 291 Commonwealth War Graves entries of the First World War (although 2 are ALIASES) and there is at least 1 non commonwealth War Casualty buried in the Cemetery, this community will bring their life-stories together and I'm hoping there are a few Grimsby Historians out there who will contribute. This might seem a little off my normal patch, but I grew up in Grimsby and still have relatives and friends in the town. All of the named CWGC graves have now been added but I am aware there are a few non-cwgc stones in the cemetery that commemorate casualties and obviously many WW1 veterans. Poignantly there is also an unknown RN Sailor of the Great War (buried 15th July 1919) in the cemetery "known unto God"
