I was so excited to find my Grandfathers papers all 41 !! of them, he died aged 36 so nothing is known about him, now it turns out I know how tall he was etc, he was a naughty boy and was found asleep on sentry duty, so imprisoned for 2 years, suspended, he was then sent to France where he caught Diptheria,he was then gassed, caught influenza ( presumably in the pandemic years of 1917/18) he survived all of this to drown in 1933, falling off the coal barge that he worked on.
Walters signature sent shivers down my spine, it is so like his sons, my father Arthur Charles handwriting.
