Notes razor received with calico holdall containing personal effects of 28007 Private Charles Brian Taylor (2nd Battalion Auckland Infantry Regiment) to his mother Mrs Mary Elizabeth Taylor - his next of kin - following his death in March 1918. Brian Taylor was killed in action, in France on 30 March 1918 and was buried at the Euston Road Military Cemetery, Colincamps, on the Somme. His brother George Barnard Russell Taylor was killed three and a half months earlier and was buried at the Menin Road South Military Cemetery near Ypres. After Mrs Taylor's death the holdall was passed on to Brian's sister, Deborah Pitts Taylor (Mrs Spencer), who had also served during WW1 as an ambulance driver based at Brockenhurst Hospital, UK.
