  Proposed Change: Grayson, Lewis (I4028) Tree: The Family Maw Link: <https:/​/​www​.family-maw​.com/​/​getperson​.php?personID=I4028&tree=Maw> Description: Here are details of Lewis Grayson from a cemetery register far from his birthplace. He seems to have had a very interesting life and a sad death in a war that he probably was against given he was with what was likely a unit whose non-combatant status came from an opposition to war: <https:/​/​www​.cwgc​.org/​find-records/​find-war-dead/​casualty-details/​2913215/​lewis-grayson/​#&gid=1&pid=2> Bryn Hammond brynleyhfsmailnet @ gamil.com
