Can anyone help with this - over a year ago I found my great-uncle, Arthur Miller on this site, noted the date of death and 'France & Flanders' but nothing else. Now I can't find him again - the date of death that I had written was 23/4/1917 - part of the form that comes up showed him as the 'son of Henry & Mary Miller - Cobden St, Kettering' I know I didn't imagine it, but I can't find him at all now, can anyone help!'!!! regards Looby PS. may be off line for a bit now, but any help gratefully appreciated.

As mentioned by others, he is on the CWGC site. However, I note you used the expression ' France and Flanders', presumably as place of death, and that is the description used in the publication ' Soldiers Died in the Great War'. It looks as though your notes may be a compilation of material from different sources perhaps? Denis.

I agree with Denis. His regiment was (4 Bn) Prince of Wales Own Yorkshire Regiment. He is on CWGC and on 'Soldiers died in the Great War' but neither gives the address of next of kin. On 'Soldiers died...........' he is shown as 'formerly 5273 Northamptonshire Regiment which ties up with the Kettering birthplace and place of enlistment as shown on 'Soldiers died...........' Good hunting Keith
