Sgt. Edwin Walter Howe MiD.
Australian Imperial Forces 4th Battalion
from:London
Edwin Howe was born in London, England in 1896. He died in Cheltenham, Victoria. Australia in 1947 aged 51 years. Because Edwin had no headstone on his grave, my brother Graham, son in law of Edwin, decided to remedy this after the death of his wife Beverly in January 2018. Much research was done to obtain information re Edwin's Army life plus entitlement of medals. With a lot of help from my local RSL Advocate we obtained the replicas just in time to be able to place them on the unmarked grave at the 100 year celebration then later on the completed grave. I am posting photos of Edwin's grave in the hope that Tony Southend or Jacs may get to see them and get in contact with us.
