Correction of date of death

[edit]

The date of Arthur's death was given here earlier as the 12 September 1918. However, Flight Magazine reported his death within their issue on 12th September 1918; his service record confirms the 2nd as being correct, per Catalogue Ref: AIR/76/269 - IMAGE 150.

Correction of Name

[edit]

George, You were correct after all. It was thought that Arthur's correct 'second' name was William as this was reflected within most official (RFC/RAF)documentation. After further research within the family archive it seems that Willan was a family name used on his mother's side. I have edited the entry to reflect this new information.

Additionally, I have also amended his Date of Death. The date within documentation and indeed his gravestone is the 2nd September 1918, not the 12th.

Kind regards, --Hotstart54 (talk) 09:12 28th April 2013 (UTC)


Thank you for the correction. When I created this article, I used what I considered to be the most authoritative source I could find to establish Major Keen's middle name...and I was obviously wrong. It's good to see the right info included. Thanks.
