John_Hartley Posted 5 June , 2009 Share Posted 5 June , 2009 Can't see anyone likely in the overseas deaths lists. Possibly a "missing" amongst dominion troops but looks a non-starter without some more information. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PPCLI Posted 5 June , 2009 Share Posted 5 June , 2009 I think the following is your man: Name: GOODE, FRANK Initials: F Nationality: United Kingdom Rank: Private Regiment/Service: Seaforth Highlanders Unit Text: 1st Bn. Age: 21 Date of Death: 22/02/1917 Service No: S/11489 Additional information: (Served as SMITH), Son of George and Elizabeth Goode. Grave/Memorial Reference: Panel 37 and 64. Memorial: BASRA MEMORIAL He served under the alias Frank Smith. However, between the date of death and the 1901 census details fitting with the family info given in his CWGC entry, I believe he is the man named on the headstone: Name: Oswald Goode Age: 5 Relation: Son Father's Name: George Mother's Name: Elizabeth Where born: Manchester, Lancashire, England Ecclesiastical parish: Manchester St Georges Fields Household Members: Name/Age George Goode/37 Elizabeth Goode/37 George Victor Goode/12 Lilian Goode/9 Ada Goode /7 Oswald Goode/5 Emma Goode/2 Anne Goode/3 months Cheers, Stuart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
