Hello Maddie, thankyou for your prompt reply to my enquiry. The 1901 census and 1911 census identify him age 1 and 11,my grandmother was Alice Jeavons aged 6 in 1901. Arthurs older brother Alfred served with the Royal Warwickshire Regiment, he was killed on 30th august 1918 and his name is on the memorial at Vis-en-Artois. Pas de Calaise France. Grandma Alice`s husband, my grandfather William Harris also served with the South Staffords from 1912 -1918 He was discharged 10th jul 1918 due ill health probably from being gassed and spent a long time in sanatoriums,he never fully recovered and died in 1923. Thanks again Leonard
