Circumstances Leading to Death (Normally from War Diary)
| Raymond is listed as dying of wounds on 6 Oct 1916. The war diary for that day, and a few days prior, does not give any indication of when or where Raymond was wounded and make no mention of casualities and therefore we are unable to say what happened to him.
