Alfred Henley WWI Death
« on: Wednesday 19 November 08 01:40 UTC (UK) »
Hello,
I believe my Grandmother's brother was killed in WWI.  His name was Alfred John Henley b. 1894 in Hove, Sussex.  His parents were Harry Henley and Rhoda (Ratcliff) Henley.  I have no information about his army records.  Would anyone have access to this information?
Thank you for any assistance,
Jeanne

Thank you so much for that information.  I'm glad, but sad as well, to have his death confirmed.
