The above soldier's date of death is incorrect on CWGC. They have him recorded as having died 28th December 1918

http://www.cwgc.org/find-war-dead/casua ... N,%20HENRY

His death was Registered

I will look up his entry in the Original CWGC register at Liverpool, before sending a error report in.

Thank you Bertie for confirmation. Most probably a error has been made when CWGC has transferred details from hard copy to digital copy easy enough to hit the 8 when it should have been 7 done it myself plenty of times.
