William Waddington also known as Thomas Morris -- two cards, no address on either.

His widow, Mary Ellen, re-married on 17 March 1917 to Private Harold Smith, 241670, 4th Battalion, East Lancashire Regiment.

Add-- Harold Smith, #241670, KIA 21st March 1918 -- address for his widow as shown on pension card was: 339 Ashton Road, Hathershaw, Oldham, Lancashire

Thank You that's really helpful
He was a reservist in 1914 so wonder if he had Boer War service?
And why he enlisted with Pseudonym ?
