Correspondence is with Lord Worsley's widow, mother and son about the location of his body and Lord Worsley's widow's plans to buy the land where his body apparently lay to enable the erection of a private memorial, but unfortunately her request was refused and Lord Worsley was later reburied with military honours at the Town Extension Cemetery in Ypres in 1921.
