Biography
Additional Information
*1 As he was recorded as born in Sandon, but enlisting in Bradford Yorkshire, and because his regiment is not that listed, he is unlikely to be the G South appearing on the memorial. The St Albans Cathedral Diocese records confirm a connection to the parish of Sandon, although he is not listed on the memorials.
