Description	File of correspondence regarding Sergeant William John Bell's grave and headstone in Ismailia War Memorial Cemetery, Egypt. Main topics include an enquiry from the casualty's sister acknowledging receipt of the Graves of the Fallen publication and enquiring with regards to the cost of personal inscription with further correspondence regarding the choice of personal inscription on the headstone. Later correspondence concerns a complaint from the casualty's sister that the replacement headstone was incorrectly inscribed with the Star of David as Captain Bell was not of the Jewish faith, although the Commission's records indicated that there was information provided in the verification form to the effect that he was.
