Headstone reads:
William, / drowned 14th Oct. 1919, aged 34 years.

Its not clear where the drowning occured, but possibly local as the war ended November 1818.

There is no UK death record in 1919.  Bremen, Germany and Hannover, Prussia, Germany, Lutheran BMB records have a death record for Carl Heinrich Friedrich Wilhelm Dittmer in 1819, so is this him?
