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.

Harponville is 3 kilometres along the D47 north of Contay towards Varennes. The cemetery will be found at the end of the main street, turning right at the church for 200 metres. The Communal Cemetery Extension is north of the Communal Cemetery.

The Commonwealth graves at Harponville were made by fighting units during the German advance on the Somme in 1918. The 34 burials in the communal cemetery date from April, May and early June, 1918. 19 of the burials are of men of the Welch Regiment. The extension contains 138 First World War burials, dating from June, July and August 1918. The extension was designed by N.A. Rew.
