  3. My Great Grandfather died alongside Arthur Lucas on the same ship. Do you know who put the poppy next to his name, as I laid the cross and would like to let the individual know about the website, as it has brought many family members together.

  4. I arrived at the Memorial Gardens after the wreath laying ceremony and therefore I have no idea who left the tribute. The single poppy placed high on the stone incriptions next to A Lucas was a poignant sight, and for this reason I felt it had to be photographed. Maybe the person who laid the poppy will come across the blog. I wish I could be more helpful. If you wish I can send copies of the photographs to you. Please leave your email address on tonbridgedaily@gmail.com
