Private Fred Luxon
This newspaper article likely refers to Pte. Fred Luxon. The attestation for Fred Luxon, 163387, indicates that he enlisted with the 84th Battalion C.E.F., a unit which was led by Lieut.-Col. Stewart. Typos and other errors were common in the papers of the day. Further research would be required to completely confirm the connection, but there appears to be no other F. Luxon or Luxton that fits the time frame of having been killed shortly before the article was published on May 8th, 1917.
