Chris:

The CD-ROM "Soldiers Died in the Great War" has:

PARKS, William Alfred
Royal Sussex Regiment, 1st Battalion
Born Kilburn, Middx
Enlisted Chichester
Died 03/11/18 (nothing on how)
rank A/SGT.
Number L/9684

He is on the Karachi Memorial, but not necessarily buried in Karachi as the
CWGC
text on the Karachi memorial says that it commemorates many dead buried in
other
cemeteries that the CWGC decided that they could not maintain.
And no family details on the CD-ROM!

Yours, John Wilson (Wellington, New Zealand)
