Errors are apparently quite common on war memorials. My Grandfather once pointed out to me a "Keith Brelstaff" on the Guisborough war memorial and told me his real name had been "Kenneth". In this case they didn't attempt to correct the existing name but just added the correct one to the end of the list.
