Notes
The Roll lists his address as Belle View, Stanground. It wrongly records his date of death as 29/9/1915.
(CWGC records that Private Russell Croft, regimental number 17267, died on 27/9/1915 while serving in 7th Battalion Northamptonshire Regiment, and is commemorated on Loos Memorial in France. They record him as the "Father of Mr R.J. Croft of 8 The Curve, Farcet, Peterborough". Soldiers Died in the Great War records that Russell Croft (a native of Ramsey St Mary's) died on 27/9/1915. The Army Registers of Soldiers' Effects record that his death "on or since 27/9/1915" was presumed, and that his widow Hannah was his legatee. The Northamptonshire Regiment's Medal Rolls record that Russell died on 27/9/1915).
