   (Not my family, but mildly interesting.)   
      
   I came across a CWGC (WWi) stone  which included details of the   
   soldier's young daughter who died a few years after him buit before   
   the stone details were finalised

   The grave registration slip has a note   
            See attached letter   
            from Yorks Records   
      
   He died 6 December 1916,   
   his daughter died 11 April11919 (aged 5+),   
   the grave registration is dated 9 August 1920   
      
   THe Gravestone papers show that the memorial to the dauhter was  the   
   "Headstone Personal Inscription" requested by the family.
