The ledgers of United Grand Lodge show that William was recorded on War Service from at least 1916 to the time of his death in 1919. He was initiated into Royal Kew Lodge No. 3012 in 1906. He petitioned for and joined Canada Lodge No. 3527 as a founder member at its consecration on 11th July 1911. This Lodge's records at UGLE show that he was "Killed in Action" 7th April 1919 which indicates that he was still operational in the post war period. He also recorded in the registers of Jerusalem Lodge No. 197 in an entry for the 27th February 1914 whilst living at Kingsway, but a further note shows that he did not take up membership, but still recorded some war service.
He was a Past Master
