William Knevitt Pinhey and Fanny Maude Pinhey
William Knevitt Pinhey enlisted in the Canadian Army on December 22, 1915 (Canadian Engineers, 1st Pioneer Battalion). This photo appears to have been taken shortly after his enlistment.

I do not have any records of William's service in WWI, other than that he enlisted in Grenfell Saskatchewan and is shown as being stationed in Grenfell in 1917.
Uncle Will married Anna Margaret Johnston on August 11, 1920 and settled down in Peterborough, Ontario, where he and Anna spent the rest of their lives.
