Mr Buttenshaw

Brothers-in-Law: Charles Stephen Stace & John Willis
Address: 59 Castle Hill Road, Hastings
Other Info: Yeoman of Signals. Prisoner of War in Germany. I could find no obvious name match on the Lives of the First World War website. The surname Buttenshaw maybe a misspelling of Burtenshaw. Going by the dress, he may have served in the Royal Naval Division.
