He appears to be listed on a memorial wall - see http://www.twgpp.org/information.php?id=2958932

Although the Commonwealth War Graves COmmission site suggests a grave exists

Father or mother? His next of kin on his service records is his mother Harriet Hughes and the records above suggest his father is deceased

If you have not seen the service records, he was serving in Mesepotamia and admitted to Amara Hospital with "abrasions, feet" then later transfered by boat to military hospital in India, where he died of malaria in Secunderabad.
