Thank you Bert. That would seem to confirm he is the right one.

Just came across the following

Liverpool Echo 17th-Dec-1917

CUBBIN-In loving memory of our dear mother, who died December 16 1915; also dad, who died March 16 1917; also our two brothers Harry and Bob who were killed in action during the year 1915.
We mourn for them in silence, But with no outward show.
For the heart that mourns sincerely beats silently and low,
Never forgotten by Eve, Nell and Gert
