DescriptionFile of correspondence concerning the grave of Second Lieutenant A. Cunningham in Liverpool (Kirkdale) Cemetery, UK. Main topics include: correspondence from next of kin regarding the placement of marble chipping on Second Lieutenant Cunningham’s grave.
Content NoteIncludes: Handwritten letter from R.A. Cunningham to the IWGC informing the Commission that because Second Lieutenant Cunningham’s grave was now full and difficult to maintain, white marble chippings were placed on the grave, dated 16 April 1962; letter from the CWGC Director-General to R.A. Cunningham stating that in May 1961 the Commission withdrew Second Lieutenant Cunningham’s grave from the list of graves being officially maintained because the grave owner had given instructions to remove the turf and plant flowers, and that the proposed action regarding marble chippings did not affect the Commission’s arrangements, dated 30 April 1962.
