Further Information About MACHIN William Anthony

I can find no link with Astley for this casualty but he is the only casualty with any kind of fairly local connection. His name does not appear on Astley War Memorial therefore I suspect he was a temporary resident in the area at one time or had a relative living locally when names for the roll of honour were being collected.
