junior infantry officer? I'm guessing he didn't make it.

Second Lieutenant J C Alexander was given precedence in rank from 1st June 1916 wef 28th August 1917 (published in the London Gazette of 28th August 1917). He completed his military service in the rank of Captain in the Coldstream Guards. Born on 15th July 1897, he will not have been permitted to go on active service until mid-July 1916. He was educated at Eton. His mother was Lady Emily Harriet Catherine Boyle, eldest daughter of the 9th Earl of Cork, briefly Liberal MP for Frome in Somerset, 1854-56, and later Speaker of the House of Lords and Master of the House.

James Cedric Alexander was the youngest of four children. His older brother, Ulick, was commissioned into the Coldstream in 1909, also survived the 14-18 war, was mentioned in despatches and awarded an OBE in 1919. He then pursued a distinguished career as a diplomat and Royal equerry in Africa, culminating in a Knighthood.

It would appear that James Cedric Alexander did not marry.
