The name of John Innes is recorded on Column 15b of The Thiepval Memorial. The Memorial's columns bear the names of over 74,000 men who fell on the Somme area and have no known grave.

It was built on the site of the ruined Thiepval Château. The Château stood on the ridge which dominates the area and was a heavily defended strong point in the German Front Line
