If you could spare a few dollars to help with the running costs of hosting this website to keep it alive would be very much appreciated.

Thankyou from Gravesites of Tasmania in advance.

Holden, Robert Stirzaker

 

 

Born 4th November 1896 Stanley Tasmania to Richard and Jane Holden (nee Martin) he was a laborer when he enlisted  

Robert enlisted on the 16th July 1915 at Claremont in Tasmania, Australia. He was last seen going "over the top" at 4pm on the 4/9/1916 in the vicinity of Mouquet Farm, France. His remains were never found. His brother Richard found his tattered pay book 6 months later, after the snows had melted at about the same spot he was last seen.
