  Notes	Richard's birth place is slightly uncertain. There is no indication that his birth was registered in England. However, other researchers have found a scarcely legible record in Ancestry.com's collection 'New York State, Birth Index, 1881-1942' which has been taken to mean that Richard's birth, on 3 March 1941, was registered in Islip, New York state. There is evidence that Richard's father was on duty in the USA during WW2, which would account for his son being born there. The evidence is that, according to the London Gazette of 28 May 1946, Captain Keith McNeil Walter, Royal Navy was awarded the US Legion of Merit (Degree of Officer) "For distinguished service in the Far East and in the United States of America". 192.com: in Electoral Registers with Dorothy A: 2020 in Southampton; 2003-05 in Berwick-upon-Tweed; 2006-07, 2009-2020 in Southampton.
