However, the family believes that he returned to Australia and married. According to family folklore - he did not die in France - his tags were on someone else and he actually returned to Australia - my family knows this because my Mum was a Snow and her father was Charles Thomas Snow - Frederick's brother. They say that he definitely returned to Australia.
