Second request:

What is her place and date of birth and what was her crime?

Can anybody please assist with the service details of Lieutenant Robert Walton BROWN, believe he was in the King's Liverpool Regiment 1914 - 1918. Died in France.


Robert was born on the 24 Jan 1879 in Alnwick, Northumberland and died believed to be 30 May 1918.
