35377 Captain Frank Green of the Royal Fusiliers died on the 15th November 1940. He was 46 years old and, according to the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, was the "son of Mr and Mrs Henry Green, [and the] husband of Hilda May Green of Balham, London, who was killed in the same incident." The incident was presumably an Air Raid, as the entry for Hilda May Green (aged 56) reads, "... of 175 Ramsden Road, Balham, London. Daughter of the late A J and Ann Dillow; wife of Capt. Frank Green (killed in same incident). Died at 58 Wolseley Road." Frank is buried in Islington Cemetery and I presume his wife is also buried there although this is not implicitly stated on the CWGC site.
