Do you just mean his death or other details? If you know who he married you can look for other offspring in case a son shows up!

Assume this is him:

Births Mar 1889 (>99%)

He could have been registered as Albert Poole, and then his parents started using the Walter later.

There are 2 others born vaguely around that time. As Dea says, we ned to know what other info you have - how you came by his birth year for example.

I have his Army records on Ancestry then then and Rose was a widow with a son called (I think) Albert (writing is very feint!!!)

Her son was VERY small when they married so would probably taken on the name of Poole.

I will go back and check the details for you!
