Hello

UK
OAKLEY, Arthur Ernest - AC2c - 761293 - he's recorded as Albert Ernest Oakley on the National Probate Calendar, and he died at the Royal Victoria Hospital, Netley, Hampshire.
His death was reported in the Hampshire Telegraph of September 22nd 1939, which reported that his parents had been informed that he was very ill in hospital, where he unfortunately died. The article also reports his name as Albert, not Arthur.
