Little is known about the Lettingtons brothers who died during the war, there are no obituaries or photos. Only Frederick's army record survives and a record of Arthur, Frederick , Frank and other siblings joining the Band of Hope at the Wesleyan Church.

They had ten children, seven boys and 3 girls. In August 1898 their son Walter William (aged 10) was found dead in a field, believed to have died following a fit brought on by the heat. As well as losing four sons to the war two of their daughters married into families who also lost members. Georgina Jessie married Arthur Maunton whose brother Albert died; Annie Maria married Henry James Gregory whose brother Thomas, brother-in-law Augustus Charles Cook and nephew Charles Frederick Gregory all died.
