There is only ONE George William Reynolds commemorated by the CWGC.

A 16.25 hrs on the 25th November 1941, while steaming to cover an attack on
Italian convoys in company with the battleships - Queen Elizabeth and
Valiant and an escort of eight destroyers, Barham was hit by three
torpedoes from the German submarine U-331.   The torpedoes were fired from
a range of only 750 yards giving no time for evasive action, and struck so
closely together as to throw up a single massive water column.   As she
rolled over to port, her magazines exploded and the ship quickly sank with
the loss of 841 men out of a crew of approximately 1,184 officers and men. 
 The survivors were rescued by the other British ships that were sailing
with Barham.
