Notes
Hornshaw and Fowler (see References) provide the extra details and say he died of wounds (and died in a casualty clearing station) not KIA as the memorial states: he is also listed on IWM 2755 and 2689 in Southowram and Halifax respectively. He had worked for a local manufacturing company until he enlisted in 1916: he then survived wounding twice before he died.
