There have inevitably been casualties along the way. There is a web site run by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. It was established by Royal Charter in 1917, it pays tribute to the 1,700,000 men and women of the Commonwealth forces who died in the two world wars. There are 7 Pinckneys listed (as below) but the site is worth a visit as it holds much more information than I have listed here. Also, please go to their individual pages here on my site as I have further information about most of them which may be of interest to you.
