He died at Ypres didn't he? As far as I am aware so did a couple of his close relatives. Obviously he was from the same line as the St George's above who at the time had emigrated to South Africa, where another two of them were killed during WW1. The current baronetcy above is from Ireland, but the line goes back to the village of Hatley St. George in Cambridgeshire where the family's ancient seat was. Hence the Hatley manor on St George's Terrace.
