October 7 1915 (1916?): George Slater, Shilbottle driver (A56, burial plot?), aged 25. Died in Graylingwell War Hospital, Chichester after active service in France. (Army Service Corps, died 3 October)

Why do the Mormons have the Shilbottle parish register Janwhin? thought that would be in Woodhorn? or is it a copy?
