Still Waters Posted September 23, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Relatives of the victim of a wartime tragedy who was buried in an unmarked grave in Ayrshire have been traced. Francesco D'Inverno died in the sinking of the Arandora Star in 1940 - one of hundreds of Italian internees to lose their lives. His body was found near Lendalfoot, South Ayrshire, and he was laid to rest in Girvan's Doune Cemetery but he was only identified decades later by detailed research. Now members of his family have been tracked down in Kent and hope to come and visit the grave. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-66867193 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
