He was almost certainly born in England in the mid 1880's , yes, he was killed in the war. |

K M Wheatley signed an acknowledgement of receipt of Albert's "1914 Star" on 11th July 1919, and then she signed for his British War Medal and Victory medal for 'my late husband' on 21st July 1921. |

This seems to be Albert's family in 1901, though the two Alices have their second initials the other way round to the military records and there's no Percy or Edith. The birthplace for Albert jr is correct though.: |

Its been wonderful to learn so much about Whealty and Piggott, such a shame that Cremin files appear to have been destroyed in the fire. Thanks once again Kucinta. |
