Eric Cecil Chute fought in World War I. His birth record has him being born in Woollahra, Australia, while his induction records have his birthplace as Sydney, Australia. His next of kin has his mother as "H.G. Chute"*, when in fact, that would be his father, Henry George. The reference to the location of "Tasmania" refers to the location of the second set of records.
*Oddly enough, Henry George arrived with an "H.G. Chute". There may be some connection between the "HG" who arrived with "Henry George" and the reference here. Birth records clearly state that his mother is Fanny; marriage records indicate that they were married in 1878 in Australia, so this reference is baffling. Further comments follow:
