Hello dearest cousin Vivis! I wonder if, from this, we could find out what happened to the lost Wilkinson brother, Frederick? There were four Wilkinson brothers. The three surviving brothers emigrated to New Zealand together in the early 1920's, and remained close throughout the rest of their lives. There was a strong feeling of kinship between all their children, and that feeling of kinship continued into the generation which Vivis and I belong to. The four brothers were George, Robert, James and Frederick. Frederick was a couple of years older than Uncle Bob and I was told by my father (Great Uncle Bob's nephew Bill Wilkinson) that Frederick died on the Western Front. Dad did not know where he was buried. Can we find him? I am new at this and I really would like to track down any information I can about him. I am assuming he would have been in the same regiment as Robert. We do not have a photograph of him, and nothing much is known about him apart from his date of birth which was 1 July 1887 in Salford and his date of death which was 19 April 1918 in France.
