MaureenE Posted 28 January , 2013 Share Posted 28 January , 2013 Family Search have the following record name: George Arthur Holt gender: Male burial date: 12 Apr 1926 burial place: Cawnpore, Bengal, India death date: 11 Apr 1926 age: 21 birth date: 1905 marital status: Unknown indexing project (batch) number: B75054-5 system origin: India-EASy source film number: 527585 You can obtain a copy of the record, which may have the cause of death. This death is also listed on the Overseas Army Index, so you could obtain a copy from the GRO. It is very likely that he died from a disease such as cholera or dysentery, possibly influenza, even sunstroke. The GRO record is more likely to have the cause of death.
