Jacky I had a quick look on the War Graves Web site since I thought it possible your Charles Robert Easton may died in the War and I have had a bit of luck myself lately looking there. I found 2 C R Eastons but I think they are the same man. Both from HMS Vivid, and one record says he is Charles Robert Easton. One record says his wife Mary lived in Ireland and he is buried at Plymouth. http://www.cwgc.org/search/results.asp Could this be your man? Is he your Grandfather or his brother?
