The Army record of the above is on Ancestry and will therefore be on the National Archives. It is damaged, but mostly legible. He was actually born in 1891. The record lists his parents, (as you have given above), 2 brothers, 4 sisters and the age and addresses of all. His wife Dorothy Ann and her address and a daughter Mary (Dakins?) Davison b 2nd Sep 1916. The declaration of his family, as above, was given by his widow (now re-married) on 18th Aug 1919. I could transcribe more if you can't get access, Regards Hazel "Life is a roller-coaster...........just got to ride it!"
