    Notes 
    • On his military record, he gives wrong birth year (1879 instead of 1876), but in another document in his papers, his correct age (42 years 5 months) is given in 1919. His brother George Pitman Silver is initially given as next of kin, but after he married Elizabeth McGregor in 1918, he changed his will accordingly.
