• Notes

  Enlisted in AIF June 1918.Stated trade as chemist,next of kin Jessie Walker Traill,address Macleay St Darlinghurst. Two years service in Boer War. This is supported by Andrew James, who says Pa ( William Harold) told him about watching Magnus leave on a trooop ship. Was medically discharged from AIF with a heart condition . Although his father's death record gives different ages for Edwin Magnus and his twin brother William Harold, this must have been a mistake as the family always refered to them as twins.
