Notes
The Memorial indicates that he formerly worked in the Corporation's Farm Department.
Although the War Memorial stated that he died on 27/9/1915, CWGC records that Private Richard Spriggs, regimental number G/7831, died on 28/9/1915, aged 33. He is commemorated on Panels 69-73 of the Loos Memorial in France. He was the husband of Mary Ann Follows (formerly Spriggs) of 21 Jarrom Street in Leicester.
