The Falshaw brothers Harry
and Arthur were my fathers cousins.
They enlisted together with my uncle William Hanna. I think Arthur and
William gave their wrong date of birth, both were born in 1898. William
survived but his cousins were killed. The Falshaw family lived at 2, Prestwich
Street. Their father never got over his sons deaths.
