Civilian deaths

[David B]

Two of my distant rels were KIA - one at the Battle of Loos in 1915 and the other at High Wood in 1916.

I note with sorrow that their father died only a few months (within 6 anyway) of the second son belig killed.

This seems to me to be a direct result of the eldest and second son dying in France. No doubt this would

possibly have been a common occurrence during WW1. These two boys must have joined up together

as their service numbers were consequitive

I'd say so, i've found a few similar. Although i'm more dubious around late 1918 and early 1919 deaths, solely due to influenza
