hey Chris,
Just got email back from the veterans site you gave me & unfortunately they are 'unable to help in the research of information of WW1 veterans'. They gave me 3 other websites, 2 of which i've already had a look at with no joy. The other one I managed to confirm what I already kinda new in that he died in 1967 in New Zealand.
Got to go out for a bit so will add to this & the other posts later...
Cheers, Wendy
