(CWGC records that Rifleman Bertram Stevenette, regimental number Z/2977, died aged 22 on 30/6/1916 serving in 12th Battalion of the Rifle Brigade, and is buried in grave D.9 of Potijze Chateau Wood Cemetery in Belgium. They record him as a native of Newark, the son of Charlotte A. Stevenette of West Lodge, Letchworth, Herts, and the late Sydney Stevenette. His birth was registered in 1894 in Newark as Bertie Stevenette, which was therefore his legal name. On the 1901 census he was recorded as Bertie, living with his parents Walter S and Charlotte A Stevenette at 10 Bernard Street in Nottingham. On the 1911 census he was living with his mother Charlotte at Clyde Villa, Bearton Road, Hitchin.
His Army service file records that he enlisted as "Bertram" Stevenette on 11/9/1914, giving his next of kin as his father, Walter Sydney Stevenette, of Ellesmere, Lytton Avenue, Letchworth. He served in France from 26/1/1915 to 13/3/1915, and again from 20/10/1916. He was killed in action 30/6/1916. Having enlisted as "Bertram", all his Army documents are recorded under that name).
