NOTTINGHAM SOUTHERN CEMETERY Sec. G.33. Grave 34.
While many soldiers of the Pioneer Corps died overseas during the invasions of North Africa or Sicily in July 1943, Private Suffolk passed away on home soil (with some ancestry records listing his place of death as Bridgend, Wales).Because he passed away in the United Kingdom, his body was brought back to his home city for burial. He is buried at Nottingham Southern Cemetery (Wilford Hill) in Section G.33, Grave 34, where his memory is marked by an official Commonwealth War Graves Commission headstone.
