Alfred Davies from West Bromwich

[rmtruby]

Alfred Davies, from West Bromwich, was one of the survivors from the sinking of the Titanic. He was 24 years old in 1912. Is there any evidence that he later served in the forces in the Great War?

Thanks

I've come across a bit of a problem. There are two conflicting sources about this man. One suggests that he died, the other suggests that he survived. Can anyone help with any concrete information?

Thanks
