Thanks Phil - I've checked his full service record (and added a link to this in the Notes field) and you are correct. I've updated the name now.

I am fairly sure this soldier should be John Ernest Lenehan (aka Jack) born on the Macleay River NSW Australia in 1872. Father was (Michael) Andrew Lenehan.
