Thank you June.
Laurence Barrow is commemorated on the war memorial of his olf schoool, Bloxham in Oxfordshire. He enlisted as a private but was commissioned in January 1915. Thanks for this image of him as a private, which I had not seen before (I am the school archivist at Bloxham School). See the website bloxhamschoolwardead.co.uk
