Notes
The College Website (see sources) states: 'William Wallace Everett was born on 20 September 1891, the son of William and Martha Everett of Chelsea, London. He was educated at Hertford Grammar School, where he was Head Boy and Captain of Cricket and Football. William matriculated at Downing College in 1910, studying Maths and Natural Sciences. He was a fine all-round athlete and represented the College at most sports and regularly at Cricket. He graduated in 1913 and secured a Mastership at Duke’s School in Alnwick.
While in Cambridge, William had been a member of the Cambridge University O.T.C. and so, following the outbreak of war, gained a Commission as 2nd Lieutenant soon afterwards in the Norfolk Regiment. He arrived in France on 30 August 1915 and after a considerable period, during which he attained the rank of Captain and was appointed Adjutant, he was sent back to England to instruct at a Cadet School, returning to France again early in 1918. Captain Everett was killed in action on 8 October 1918, just weeks from the end of the war, while attached to the 2nd Battalion, Norfolk Regiment. He is buried at Montbrehain British Cemetery.
