More about Andrew Miles/Myles

For reasons unknown this man is not listed on the original Dundee Roll of Honour. He was the brother of Pte John Myles, 2187, 2nd Battalion Black Watch, who was killed in action 25.09.1915.

Andrew is recorded as MILES on C.W.G.C. but his brother John is recorded as MYLES.
