Hello Paul,
I think we may be related. I'm the grandson of Beatrice Easom. I recall my aunt saying that the last time her mother saw her brother George was at the station when he left to go to war. Both Beatrice and her younger sister Elizabeth were there. They never hear from them again after this. My aunt recalled meeting her uncle John during the war when she was in Nottingham. Beatrice and Elizabeth both emigrated to Canada in 1919 and 1921 respectively. It's a very strange story. Not sure how to find him.
