Personal Stories
Re Benno Point
The surname here, as it is in the AIF Project, is not Poutt but Pontt, hence the document uploaded. It is perhaps most clear in the enlistee's signature at the bottom of the page. Page 8 of the NAA file has the surname typed as Pontt. Two newspaper references are helpful: Kapunda Herald, 14 July 1916, p. 3 and Mount Barker Courier and Onkaparinga and Gumeracha Advertiser, 18 February 1916, p. 2.
