Hi All
No Military Records, Married Alice Ida Field [Poss Cousin] 10 Nov 1889 at All Saints Whitstable. 1901,1911,1921, census, 1939 Register and his Probate all give the same address 6 Bexley Street, Whitstable. He is a greengrocer then by 1939 a widow and retired greengrocer. Born 8 Feb 1858 Woolwich, Kent. He dies 15 Sept 1945 at Whitstable Hospital, the death was registered in Bridge Kent District. I would expect him to be buried in Whitstable.
