James Wilfred Wedge 1st Tank Battalion CEF 1918

[keni010]

Can anyone help me to find details of James Wilfred Wedge, service number 2381899? He enlisted for the 1st Tank Battalion CEF on 15th April 1918 and in Winnipeg. He was born in Summerside, Prince Edward Island, Canada and was discharged on June 2nd 1919. His record states, 1st Bat, CTC England. He last lived in Manitoba I believe. He died on 1st August 1960.
I'm trying to find details of any relatives of his for a cousin of mine whose father served with James Wilfred Wedge. Any further information would be great. Thanks a lot.

It looks like this might be the family on this 1911 census page (Paul and Mary Wedge and host of younger kids):
