PaulC78 Posted 4 February , 2023 Share Posted 4 February , 2023 (edited) HIGHTON is apparently buried at Worksop (Retford Road) Cemetery, headstone to be installed by CWGC. Cause of death was (i) influenza, (ii) broncho pneumonia, haemoptysis. Discharged medically unfit 19/09/1918, disability was tuberculous adentits (neck, axilla) and general debility, originating during pre-war service in India but aggravated during WW1. Pneumonia appears to have been a complication caused by the tb, but the medical report is hard to read.
