LAC William H. JAMES - 1195564; there are six listed in EngWal index, all are high ages except for age 36 in Newwark district, Notts. He is buried of course in Newark upon trent.

Cpl James K.N. MUNRO - 874674 - age 43, Northumberland South district.

Sgt Charles H. ROBERTS - 1554646, all the names in EngWals are too old compared to CWGC, I don;t seem to see him in Scotland either tho. Douglas might be able to find him better as he has credits in the system.
