Hmmmm - something odd here - well to me at least Donald McCallum CWGC details Casualty 2nd Corporal MCCALLUM, DONALD Service Number O/0863 Died 22/01/1921 Aged 58 Royal Army Ordnance Corps transf. to (714412) Labour Corps Husband of Caroline McCallum, of 58, Sutherland Avenue, Maida Vale, London.

His son Albert Victor McCallum CWGC details Casualty Rifleman MCCALLUM, ALBERT VICTOR Service Number 2545 Died 21/08/1920 Aged 28 Rifle Brigade transf. to (678624) Labour Corps (Served as MACDONALD, G.). Son of Caroline McCallum, of 58, Sutherland Avenue, Maida Vale, London, and the late Donald McCallum. What seems odd is that the son dies in 1920 and eiptaphh states his late [father] but he didnt die until a year and a half later.

TD, I think the inscription is correct as it would likely only be erected after the father passed away. Steve
