The name Gossage C on this memorial is possibly incorrect. There were two Gossage brothers who served in the Great War; 9/39 Charles Ingram Gossage and 9/572 George Gossage. Charles survived the war but George was Killed in Action at Gallipoli on 27 August 1915. So the name on the memorial should read Gossage G. it would be nice to see this corrected if it is indeed in error,
