William (Willie) HOOKINS was born on 3rd August 1898 at Pawlett in Somerset and was baptised 25 days later. He was a horseman in the Army but his regiment is not yet known. He is believed to be pictured here in Army uniform with a lady believed to be his mother Susan so this will have been taken somewhere around the 1920 period. Willie was best man at his brother Henry's wedding in 1920 quoted as Billie but he died of consumption in 1924.
