Anyone fancy sharpening their search skills?

I'm not sure if I'm getting confused (easy with Smiths) but I don't think any one said Walter died young. As per your op he died in WWI. There was a William who possibly died young but there are a number of possible deaths that could be his and no way to tell which (if any) is his.
The Walter you’ve all been searching for is Ernest’s brother. Ernest married Leah Ashford and their first child was called Walter. He died only a few weeks old. Walter the brother died in 1917
