Royal Victoria Hospital Netley and Military Cemetery
(From Commonwealth War Graves Commission website https://www.cwgc.org/visit-us/find-cemeteries-memorials/cemetery-details/39250/netley-military-cemetery/)
Netley Military Cemetery is a permanent military cemetery, the property of the Ministry of Defence.
The cemetery was at the back of the Royal Victoria Military Hospital and was used during both wars for burials from the hospital.
The cemetery contains 637 First World War burials but only 35 from the Second World War. In addition to the Commonwealth graves, there are a number of war graves of other nationalities including 69 German graves dating from the First World War.
There is also an excellent website with significant research now committed to the internet. Please visit https://www.netley-military-cemetery.co.uk/#gsc.tab=0 to avail yourself of this excellent resource.
