Pictures of the Vignacourt British Cemetery, Vignacourt, France, Now Available on Geneanet

Posted by admin on Feb 26, 2015

When the German advance began in March 1918, Vignacourt was occupied by the 20th and 61st Casualty Clearing Stations. It also became a headquarters of Royal Air Force squadrons. The cemetery was begun in April and closed in August, and the burials reflect the desperate fighting of the Australian forces on the Amiens front. Six burials made in the communal cemetery between October 1915 and March 1918 were brought into the cemetery after the Armistice. (Source: CWGC)
