Look for his birth on LancsBMD site to find out MMN

Have you tried googling to find out whether he actually was an author?

Born 1893 , Bolton Lancs. Died 1944 in France. Looking to trace ancestors for the above W J Makin. Suspect he could be Author of books in his later life. Would be grateful for comments. Feel there is a strong connection with Bolton in my tree but not yet established it. Thankyou.
