Was it not Regent's Park rather than Hyde park? Anyway I was in Bicester the other day so I had a walk through the cemetery. I was pleased to see John McKnight's grave well tended (one of the seven bandsmen). There are a few other military headstones there, a few RAF and RCAF due to the airfield being nearby. Also I noted the grave of a 47 year old private from the Ox and Bucks who fell in 1916. I suppose he must have been a reservist at that age, possibly a Boer war veteran.Pen Pusher & Paper Shuffler

Was in Bicester again on Thursday. John's headstone was getting a bit overgrown by a nearby conifer. I pushed as much of it behind as I could. Overall the cemetery is in good order and the church is undergoing restoration with lottery funding.Pen Pusher & Paper Shuffler
