Pte. Arthur C. TYLER. I have a photograph off it, with many other names, but the only Tyler supposed to be there was for Trooper Stanley Herbert TYLER. No. 75480. That number taken of Cenotaph site. Auckland as the list I was given years ago to photograph every headstone included Trooper S.H Tyler no number. I have a photograph of the original headstone can just make out the lead lettering on it. Pvte. Stanley... the rest is missing on the broken headstone.. subscribers may remember about 10 years ago or more I listed all the headstones I had found under the trees at the back of the cemetery? Aged 18 years. 20th March 1916. Checked up from Cambridge so have emailed the Museum there about the soldier. Now in the book The Great War 1914-1918 which I have a copy off, no sign of Private Arthur C. Tyler so who was he, possibly a miss print on the obelisk it can happen over the years that have been a few errors and reported and rectified.. Like Private Thomas Wm. H. King, was supposed to have been Pte Thomas William Spence King . then Lt Prentice had two headstones!! I may visit Featherston over the weekend and see the grave of Stanley H Tyler or they may have the wrong details with Arthur C Tyler! The original headstones, were the ones family donated and discarded in 1970 when CWWG wanted their own regimental ones erected at each grave.. instead of the lovely marble ones under the trees.
