About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Joncourt is a village situated in the north-western corner of the Department of the Aisne, 12 kilometres north of St Quentin. Joncourt East British Cemetery is signposted 1 kilometre to the east of the village traveling on the D713 in the direction of Ramicourt. (The signpost to the cemetery directs visitors 500 metres down a muddy track, and it is advisable to take this final portion on foot.)

The village of Joncourt was immediately west of the German fortification called the Beaurevoir-Fonsomme Line. It was captured by Australian troops on 31 September 1918, and cleared by the 5th Australian and 32nd Division on the following day.

Joncourt East British Cemetery contains 71 First World War burials, 62 of which belong to the 15th or 16th Lancashire Fusiliers or the 2nd Manchesters. All of the graves date from the period 30 September-3 October 1918. The cemetery was designed by W. H. Cowlishaw.
