Information from Ian Mackarel
"I am Bertram Triance's great-grandson. My grandmother (his daughter), Jean Louise Triance (later Mackarel) recounted the circumstances of his death to me some years ago. I took some brief notes about this and other family details at the time. The account given to his family was that he was hit by an artillery shell and died instantly. I was told that he had only joined the army 6 weeks before his death following an incident at work where he was given white feathers by colleagues. He had been exempted service previously. His widow, Daisy, subsequently married James Culverwell and had other children."
