Notes
The Roll lists his address as 100 New Road, Woodston. It inaccurately states that he died on 23/4/1915.
(CWGC records that Lance Corporal G. Sneesby, regimental number 12292, died aged 23 on 9/4/1917 serving in 2nd Battalion Suffolk Regiment, and is now buried in grave IV.B.26 in Tilloy British Cemetery at Tilloy-les-Mofflaines in France, having been exhumed from Harp Redoubt and reinterred after the War. They record him as the son of Mary Ann Sneesby and the late John Sneesby of Chatteris, Cambridgeshire, and as the husband of Ellen Elizabeth Sneesby of 100 New Road, Woodston, Peterborough. Soldiers Died in the Great War record that George Sneesby was a native of Chatteris, who died on 9/4/1917. The Army Registers of Soldiers' Effects record that his widow Ellen was his legatee. On the 1911 census George had been living with his widowed mother Mary Ann at 18 Curtis Road, Chatteris. His marriage to Ellen E Booth was registered in Peterborough District in 1914).
