Notes
The Roll lists his address as Cavendish Street; it lists his year of death, and that he died in the Battle of the Ancre, but does not record the day/month that he died.

(N.B. The Roll is known to include numerous errors, including: misspelt names and inaccurate date/place of death, service number/ rank/ military unit etc; several casualties were mistakenly listed on it twice [i.e. under their true name and also the alias under which they served]; several other men were listed on it due to the mistaken belief they had died, whereas they had actually survived).
