I know that she didn't have a brother named Walter, but he might have been a cousin.

Maybe Retlaw will supply us with some local info (eg address) from his WW1 records.
Just seen this thread.
Walter was studying sculpture in London when WW1 broke out, he served as a Lieut in the Loyal North Lancs.
Walter was 35 years of age when he was awarded the Military Cross, for rescuing a wounded man who was trapped underground.
His parents lived at 18 Princess St,
