Wheaterton

Fantom,

Tell me more about Wheaterton. The Commonealth War Graves Commission records have nobody of that name (spelling) in their registers.

This means:
a. The spelling is wrong
b. The person falls outside the periods of the two world wars and so is not listed in the general registers, although the commission will have his details
c. His name is not just Wheaterton but might be Buggins-Wheaterton or somesuch variation
d. He is a foreign national

O-D
