No problem, there are over 450 references to Lewisham in the London Gazette between 31st October 1914 and 31st December 1918. I haven't checked them all as life is too short, I was just showing you what you need to do if you want to identify the solder.
The problem is of course compounded, if he had recently married a girl from Lewisham but actually came from Catford.
