Patrick Sarsfield
Patrick Sarsfield was mortally wounded at the battle of Landen (Neerwinden) in current day Belgium on 29th July 1693. He was transported some 20 miles to the town of Huy where he dies a few days later. Huy had a hospital at this time. I am trying to determine where Patrick Sarsfield is buried. Would any Wild Geese Members have any information on his place of burial?

He was carried from the field to the village of Huy, where he died in a few days, of the fever induced by his wound. He was, no doubt, buried there, but no stone marks his grave. https://books.google.com/books?id=0NkJAAAAIAAJ&pg=PA202#v=onepa...
