I am writing to ask the name of Your Former Wifes Mother please. I believe William and Tom were all Brothers and Tom was the only one of the three that returned to New Zealand and Married My Mothers Sister Annie. Their eldest daughter was named Tunisia Ann Cassidy and I was named after Her. I also believe there was another Brother whom I guessing to be Henry but the address details don't seem to go with the Profile so I may be wrong. I was told Both William and Henry died within minutes of one another in the same place so only Tom came home from the War. I guess what i'm wanting to know. Were there any other Cassidy's buried near William Diamond???
Would love to know
Regards, Tunisia

Kia ora Tunisia
Just a heads up that you can search the Commonwealth Cemeteries online. I had a look for your Cassidy whanau & it looks like William is the only one buried at Enfidaville War Cemetery in Tunisia:
https://www.cwgc.org/search-results?term=cassidy&name=cassidy&fullname=cassidy&tab=wardead&fq_warliteral=2&fq_servedwithliteral=New+Zealand
I narrowed down the search by selecting World War II & served with New Zealand.
Nga mihi :-)
