Thank you suzard.
I am researching my Harry family and trying to connect to Percy William Harry.
My family came from Cornwall and earlier generations of PWH have also been traced back to Cornwall.A friend believes she is connected but lost contact as a young woman.
I would like confirmation of his burial and family/connections where he died.

You are absolutely correct.Both Percy William and Gilbert were sons of Samuel Harry and Sarah Ida Bleathman.Samuel was a Primitive Methodist Minister.He travelled to the U.S.

I don't think this is the family in 1901.
In 1901 he was aged 8 living with the family of Isaac Brentnall at Battersea.I think Brentnall was also a Primitive Methodist Minister.
Gilbert was b1893 Guernsey Channel Isle and came to Australia 1910/12.
He joined the AIF and won the Military Medal twice.

Percy William was in the choir at Westminster Abbey and would have attended school there.

This looks like the grandparents of Percy William and ilbert

1871
Union Ed St Austell Cornell
Thomas harry head M 36 tin miner
Mary A wife 35
Samuel son 8
Claudia daughter 6
RG10 2263 19 2

1861 Union Rd
St Austell
Thomas Harry head 26 miner Tin
Mary A wife 25
Charles son 1mth
all b St Austell
RG9 1547 123 24

so Samuel would be the father of percy and Gilbert - and in 1901 gilbert was staying with Auntie Claudia (and so was Gran Mary Ann

My confirmed Harry family were living St Austell/St Stephen in Brannel in 1841 and later,leading me to the belief that we are connected to the other Harry family:
