Thank you for posting this information.  I have been researching William's life and death for seven years.  Although he survived the Gallipoli campaign, he was then sent to Mesapotamia with the 6th Lancashire regiment and it is likely he died in the first battle of Basra.  The medical facilities were far away from the fighting and many men who were injured in the fighting died in transportation accross the desert to the medical faculities.  His daughter Ethel Murial was my grandmother.
