The Daily Record and Mail Thursday July 20, 1916 has the following article
"STRICKEN KIPPEN FAMILY
Bombadier William Chrystal, of Douglas Place, Kippen, who was killed while serving his gun in France, is the third member of his family who has made the ultimate sacrifice. His brother Andrew, who came from Canada to join the Highland Light Infantry, and another brother, Robert, of the Argylls, were both killed in the earlier stages of the war. Twenty-seven years of age, Bombadier Chrystal had served for four years in the Army before war broke out, and came with the forces from India. He was wounded twice soon after he went to France"
