I have found this note written on the entry for a WW1 soldier on the WW1 Service Medal and Award Rolls, is someone able to tell me what this refers too?

Thanks

I am doing a family tree for a friend and following one great uncle who was killed in action and the death date was given as 31 Oct 1918. I have obtained the war diary for the regiment that he was with but have found no deaths for "other ranks" on that day. There was an officer died on the 1 Nov 1918 whilst "holding the line" and then a major offensive on the 4 Nov 1918 with heavy casualties.
The grave yard in which he is buried is within 8KM of the action around the 4 Nov 1918 so I just assume that he was still with his regiment when he died.

Just wondering if the date's of death were always accurate??

The surname is Nonas but there are numerous variations.

I have found an entry on Family Search for a Military Service entry for a Thoedoros Nonas born 1891 Greece, on United Kingdom, Merchant Navy Seamen Records, 1835-1941.

Can't find any mention on Anc...ty. Our library closed so unable to search FimdmyPast.  Would welcome any help looking for this info and any other information about Theodore.
