Individual Note

Enlisted in Royal Marine LIght Infantry 11 Mar 1901. Gave DOB as 25 May 1882. One year younger than he was (confirmed by GRO Index) suspect he added a year so he could enlist - otherwise would have been 17.

Gave home address of Renfrew Street which corresponds to J F VOLP's address so it is the right one.
