Notes
His name is on the Historic Obelisk in Melbourne General Cemetery, however there was no casualty found. Many others within and outside our association have tried to find this name with no success. There is no grave in this name registered with the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. It is thought that this name was confused with 3911 Private Edward Ephraim Barnet SAMUEL who was a casualty. Compare the following: EDWARD SAMUEL | HOWARD SAMUEL. Rabbi’s and researcher’s decision: Ruled that he did not exist and no casualty was found. Therefore not to be on the list for future memorials.
