Can you help NZ Remembrance Army?

Denise from Marewa

Seeking family for the following soldiers buried at Taradale (Napier) cemetery and don't have a headstone. We still can get them one if no-one comes forward but we must first check there is no-one who may wish to object.

Richard Henry Dampney WW2 578787
George Bernard Timlin WW1 64387
John Morrison MacConnell WW2 281537

Also Benjamin Paul Leadbetter, WW1 25897. Napier City Council don't know where he's buried. Neither does any family we've been in contact with or the Catholic Church who probably did his funeral.

Is there any who DOES know where he's buried. We are unable to proceed without an exact location.

Please email napierwargraves@gmail.com for any of these soldiers.
