Anne

I have obtained his records and he looks a good prospect but you will need to obtain his Death Certificate to confirm how he died and whether there is a link to his service. It alone might not confirm his NOK and link to Mortlach.

He was discharged at Bedford medically unfit on 12th January 1915.
