I hope this gives you plenty of leads to follow. I didn't have time to look up other Corkills of the era, to see if he had siblings at College. Why don't you get in touch with K.W.C. and see if they can give you further information. They must surely have a website. They have an old boys magazine called the Barrovian, which contains obituaries, etc. Wish you well.
