Cooper and J. Cooper are WW1 - note E. G G. J. Cooper is WW2 When were the Grimwoods buried - what were their names and how old were they at the time?

Just starting to have look round It's unlikely that anyone reading this will happen to know anything, they will have to look - try googling https://familysearch.org/search - many Grimwood deaths recorded in Woodbridge .
