One year of war service recorded in the contribution records at United Grand Lodge of England, final annotation: "Died Oct 1918 on a/s" [active service].
Stated to be a Butcher from Ryton. Care needs to be taken in research as there are multiple entries for John Humble. Link must be back to Ryton, Tyne and Wear and a date of death in 1918. This original record was mistakenly for John Humble of Scottish descent who died in 1916.
