Rank: Major

Unit: Royal Marine Artillery

Date of Death: 8 January 1892

Location: Highland Road Cemetery Portsmout

Notes: Burial location: N 2nd Central plot, Row 1, Grave 21. The Cemetery Office register records this grave as being next to the position occupied by Colonel Digby, RMA, but it is two rows away. This area of the cemetery was hit by a land mine in WWII and much damage was done. There is rumour that some of the gravestones may have been restored to the wrong position, but this cannot be confirmed.
