Hi Paul I never thought of that. The reason? They had obviously been kept very clean.. You must be right about WW1 for there would not have been time to get the headstones. Impossible!
Odd that they had been kept in such a clean and tidy condition, I am not sure, but I think it was only three graves.

I remember spending a moment or two for them, and tapping the headstone with my hand, daft really. But there you go. the graves were only a short distance from the banks of the Seine. Thing about it is, they looked so odd there all on their own.
Cheers
