Pendlebury.   Buried on the 4th November 941,

Salford.  Burial No. 190 in Grave C701.

MYSTERY - His date of death is recorded as the
30th August 1941 and yet his burial took place on
the 4th November 1941.   It would appear that his
date of death is wrong - probably the last day(s)
of October.  Perhaps the 30th August should read
30th October???

Memorial, London.
