My GGG uncle is on this memorial, Fred Atkinson killed in action 7/8/1916, his body was never recovered

[@Thirdfish]

Please can you clarify. I was told there can not be a grave stone without a body, is this true? My Gt Uncle is on that memorial, his body was most likely buried in a mass grave, he was killed within half an hour of the first day of the Somme.

Beautiful and serene place. I personally loved it there, and the memorabilia avaliable is also stunning to look at and read about.
