I have the following report

Liverpool Echo 10th October 1916

KILLED

Private Arthur R Wright (24), Canadians. Before going to Canada he lived with his parents at 83, Earle Road, Liverpool. His younger brother was also killed weeks ago.

I cannot find an entry for him on CWGC.

I have his service papers which state his Regiment number is 142025

http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/m ... 88190a.gif&

he is recorded on the 1901 Census

Piece 3489

Folio 16

Page 24

There is a link to Canadian Soldiers on Ancestry for him but I don't have World access

There is a record on St. Dunstan for

A. Wright

H.H.J. Wright

King's Liverpool Regiment Wright 23871 Herbert Harry James Private Liverpool 30th July 1916 Killed Son of Herbert and Ellen Elizabeth Wright, of 83, Earle Rd., Edge Hill, Liverpool

Any help appreciated.
