Private Robert Thomas Robson,Australian Infantry,AIF died on 26 September 1917 and is commemorated on Ypres(Menin Gate) Memorial.His age is given as 22 but his school record indicates that he was 42.The CWGC record may be wrong or this may be the wrong man.Can anyone supply any clarification?
Thanks
Hugh
