Additional Information

*1 There appear to be two Albert Edward Smiths with an association with Ware it is not yet clear which one is the soldier commemorated on the memorials 36456 or 3596. However, the latter man's association appears to be through his parents address, given after he died and his burial location, so currently it appears more likely to be 36456 and this man.
