Hi again,
sadly my subscription for the British Newspaper Archive has just ended (I take out occasional trials when on special offer, last was £1/month!, so worth signing-up for the monthly newsletters...)
However anyone can still search for free, and get hints, I've just found this one which probably relates to your George hearing the terrible news about his son in France.

"COLEFORD SOLDIER.
Mr George Frowen, of Newland Street, Coleford, has received information from the War Office, that his son...."
Saturday 6 March 1915, Gloucestershire Chronicle" (and others)

You can search and find it yourself from here, set filters to "Gloucestershire" and search "George Frowen".

Please can someone with a BNA subscription consider looking this up in full, and maybe even downloading the image for Euansma, thanks.

Finally, re your Army enlistment papers suggestion, as I'm sure you know sometimes they have the address as per their home barracks, eg Bristol for the Gloster Regiment.
