Notes
He enrolled at Worcester College, Oxford in 1913 and the college archive adds: 'Arthur Raynes matriculated in 1913 as an open Classical Exhibitioner and won the Squire Ordination Scholarship. He joined the Oxford University Officer Training Corps in October 1914 and received his commission in November. He was gazetted Lieutenant of the 11th Essex Regiment in July 1915 and went to the front in August. Like his friend Arthur Bedells (also listed on this memorial), Lieutenant Arthur Raynes was reported wounded and missing on 26 September 1915, the second day of the Battle of Loos. In August 1916 his family was informed that his death from wounds received in action had now been presumed.'
