Next of Kin: Mrs G. G. Reynolds, Pirie St, Wellington (Roll of Honour, Auckland Province 1914-1918 (Volume 1)) AWMM - I changed Phoebe's mother's initials from GG to EE. I noted the typed embarkation roll gave Phoebe's mother as Mrs GG Reynolds of 90 Pirie Street, but she was actually Elizabeth Eleanor. On Phoebe's military file her mother's initials are marked correctly as EE.
I am researching Phoebe's family, starting from her grandparents down
thankyouPublic - Kaye - Researcher - 10 January 2025 - Military file has mother's correct initials; Error was on the embarkation list.
