Additional Information
*1 There is a Private A Smith on this memorial, but unfortunately this could commemorate any of the following men: Alfred Smith (4/7251), Arthur Smith (14154), Arthur Smith (13996), Albert Edward Smith (163151), Arthur Mansfield Smith (50671), but as this memorial seems to include middle initials, it is more likely to one of the first three.
His headstone inscription reds: " JESU IN THY GRACIOUS KEEPING LEAVE WE NOW OUR LOVED ONE SLEEPING"
