Andy J2022:  I have never found the TNA website very easy to deal with for searching but have had a quick look and have submitted a request for search.  As I live in France I can't easily get to Kew to do any searching myself so will wait to see what they come back with for me.  It may be I can persuade other cousins to split the cost of research with me ....

MollyC:  I will investigate.

Thanks, again.

Rena:  I agree and understand all you say about burials, carrying a wounded man etc. and was pretty much as I had worked out for myself but just felt the need to ask a question and satisfy myself there was no more to be done.  I strongly suspect the surviving brother was distressed by his brother dying right beside him and may have felt guilty for surviving.  I know they were more than brothers and 'mates' as well.

I thought you probably did but I took the view that I would confirm that you were not alone in your beliefs.
