FREDERICK BROCKLEHURST - N0.4176
I was looking through the Pension record for my G.Granddad and was looking at the Territorial Page with his name and address etc. At the very bottom of the page there is a witness name.
Now... his wife was called Dorothy Brocklehurst to whom he was married to at that particular time. Her maiden name was Clifton
The witness name looks like it says 'ANOWELL CLIFTON' .

Is this possible? Could it be signed by a family member?
If so it would be a clue to her family
