__________
We can see from Richard's military registration card that in September 1918, he was living at 813 Sherman Road, Hood River, Oregon. Confusingly, he says that he was a Native Born American but that he was citizen of England, and not America. He was in Invalid, but employed by the Singer Sewing machine Co., Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. His next of kin was Mrs R(?) Holloway of the same address. He was short, stout, with blue eyes and brownhair.

We can see from the LDS site that his wife (which the LDS IGI gives as Evah Clare) died at Hood River less than two months after the military registration card was completed.
