Just been looking at an army record for an Elijah Turner born 1878.

Looks like he joined the army in 1891 giving his age as 13. Also - for some reason- a copy of his death cert 1946, ties in with above record. shows he was a retired railway labourer, informant K A Chanter. Must be a relative of his wife.

(the K A Chanter was Kate Amelia born 1884, cousin of Alice, her father was James Chanter)

Andrew, thank you very much, exeptional research! It seems his life was quite complicated, I wonder how he relates to Leonard though

Chris Ho, Thank you very much, the names seem to have been quite a problem; it does seem very likely though
