Thank you very much.
Your replay may answer the original post by a PeteEvans.
The son called George Henry Edgar Baker Hunter. I now suggest that he may have been born c1915 to a George Baker and his wife Ethel May Evans. This George Baker may have died 1917 and his widow Ethel May married an ANZAC serviceman John Reginald Hunter injured and in England. They have a child called Jack Reginald Hunter and John Reg Hunter adopted Ethel's son thus, the name Baker Hunter.
Thank you for the Wills giving names of grandson and great grandson.

I will need to follow up on your Will references. I have plenty of Rees relations in NZ of whom the above James William Hunter will also be a Rees descendant.
