Biography
The Hertfordshire Express of November 17th 1917 reports Henry as joining up in the week before. Prior to the war, Henry was a pork butcher and grocer. No further corroboration of Henry has been found, and the mention of him being a pork butcher and grocer suggests that perhaps the paper had mistakenly recorded Harry Davis as Henry. So it is likely that this is a false trail and that ‘Henry’ is, in fact, the Harry Davis above.
