"TWO BROTHERS KILLED IN ACTION.
Mrs. E. M. Lloyd, of Narracoorte, has been advised by the military authorities that two of her sons, Pte. Thomas Lloyd and Dvr. William H. Lloyd, have been killed in action on the western front on March 25. A third son, Pte. R. G. Lloyd, paid the supreme sacrifice about 12 months ago. The late Pte. T. Lloyd, who was 20 years of age, enlisted on March 15, 1916, and had been 13 months in action. He was attached to the 14th Field Artillery Brigade. The late Dvr. W. Lloyd, who was 22 years of age, enlisted at Kingston in April, 1915. He had been in France more than two years, and was attached to the artillery." - from the Adelaide Register 17 Apr 1918 (nla.gov.au)
