Notes
According to the Angus and Rosemary's Miscellany of Malvern website (see References): 'Lieutenant Arthur Hugh Courtney Galbraith 285th Siege Battery, 83rd Artillery Brigade, Royal Garrison Artillery, BEF died of gas poisoning aged 21 years and is buried in France. As far as we know Arthur, who was born in India, had no connection with Malvern Wells. The plaque was most likely commissioned by his widowed mother and younger brother Ian William Galbraith (1898 - 1939). In 1924 Ian had married Mary Florence Baker daughter of retired Rear Admiral Julian Alleyne Baker (1848 - 1922) and Geraldine Eugenie Alison (1866 - 1934) of The Dell, Malvern Wells - their marriage may have been at St Peter's. Possibly Arthur's widowed mother Dame Helen Mary Galbraith had lodged with Geraldine Baker as a companion at The Dell after their husbands died; certainly, Helen appears to have stayed in Malvern and died at Carinthia, Cowleigh Road, Great Malvern in 1942.'
