Walter married Rose Wilkinson in the September qtr.
of 1918 Bethnal Green it says she is a widow and her fathers name John Wilson
bottle washer it says she was 33.
On Walter A Poole army papers one page is a letter about the son Albert
Wilkinson saying that Walter would be known as the father. I am afraid I ca't read the papers now as I have gone blind

Margaret, I was posting possible deaths for the son Albert Ernest.

He may have used Poole as his surname or reverted to Albert Ernest Wilkinson

The death for Albert senior is probably on the CWGC site but there's loads of possible ones some of whom havent been claimed by family
