Think his parents are an Ernest and Elsie
and wife Amy
courtesy of Richard warbys book.
Extract from the 'In Memoriam' column of the "County Express" of 8th June 1918: - "In loving memory of husband Roger Hillman RAMC killed in action June 7th 1917. Silently mourned by loving wife Amy and parents Elsie and Ernest. 'Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.'"

Extract from the "West Bromwich Weekly News" of July 6th 1917:- Sergeant R. Hillman of 2 Duke Street, Blackheath, R.A.M.C. killed in action. He was 22 years old and married. Prior to enlisting in 1914 he was employed at T. W. Lench and a member of the works ambulance division. He was mentioned in despatches some months ago."
