Hi Jillian Sorry but I could find no record of the death of Henry Charles Palfrey on 1837 online. Perhaps he was one of the casualties who were never identified. Have you checked the Commonwealth War Graves site? Regards Mary

Hi Mary Arthur Edward Hawkridge, he was 24 in 1901 and was a private in the Royal Marines stationed at that point in Devon. No-one knows what became of him beyond that but family rumour has it that he died in WW1, but he never married so there's never been anyone to verify that. Thanks Lou

Constance Can you take a look for WW1 servie record for Edmund Edward Charles McPherson. He married in 1909 aged 21 and lived in Pimlico. His spouse was Edith. He didn't use his first name very often so he could be under Edmund or Edward. Many Thanks Roy
