German Burials for 1940

Been chatting to Dave (CROONAERT) about fighting around Oostaverne, south of Ypres in May 1940.
The question of where the German casualties are buried came up.
I know the German Divisions involved were 18th, 31st & 61st.
That info comes from 5th British Division History.
If we had OrBats for them from 1940 would that help narrow down possible German casualties from that action.
(I was going to look for them on Feldgrau.com but site seems to be down.)
ah, 18 Infanterie Div here on Axis history
31 Infanterie Div here
61 Inf Div here

Do German WW2 Burials list the Soldiers unit?
Even better has anyone any details on named German casualties for then?
