Uploader's Notes:

AKA George Sykes, served as Arthur Frederick Roberts, but CVWM shows his surname as Sykes. It appears that the surname 'Sykes' was not discovered by military officials until after his death; husband of Flora Clementina Roberts (nee McArthur, later Desjarlais) married February 12, 1907 at Lebret, Saskatchewan

Previously served in the Royal Army Medical Corps.
