You might be able to order his service records from the MOD at a cost of £30. They ought to name his next of kin. |

Andrew only says as I posted above Mr and Mrs not first name but do wonder if Annie death above is the grandmother as name ties in with Seth and year of birth seems to fit with 1911 census. |

Thank you, Jansmith. Looks about right, Seth must have gone back up north after Annie Died as his Death recorded 1943 Oldham. |
