| YORK J .E | In spite of extensive research, we have been unable to positively identify this man. We believe that he may possibly have been John Edward York who was born in Raunds in 1891. He was the son of Isabella and the step-son of James Meekins of Jubilee Street. Irthlingborough. Rose Evelyn Meekins, his step-sister, would have been four years his junior. As we cannot accurately identify him, it would be irresponsible of us to suggest his possible Service Number, Regiment or date of death. |
