Lt Stanley George Amor, born 1896: Wiltshire Regiment and later Royal Flying Corps 1915-1919.

Private Harold Geoffrey Amor, born 1894: refused to fight and so went with the Royal Army Medical Corps as a stretcher bearer.

LCpl Edgar William Amor, born 1892: Enlisted 8th Battalion Duke of Cornwalls Light Infantry, survived the Somme but died in Salonica in 1918 and buried in Sofia War Cemetery.
