Notes
Hornshaw and Fowler provide the extra details. A married man who played football for Hebden Bridge and was a member of both the local Liberal and Hockey Clubs, he worked for his family firm of clothiers before enlisting in November 1916. He refused a commission and was killed by shellfire, as was his brother, James (not listed here) a little over a month later. Both men are commemorated on IWM 29384 and 2712 and Claude is also commemorated on the Tyne Cot Memorial.
