Notes
The Roll lists his adddress as High Street, Old Fletton. It incorrectly recorded him as "Atlas Edwin Neal"; his name was actually Atlee Elvin Neale.
(CWGC records that Serjeant A Neale, regimental number 44420, died aged 29 on 19/6/1917 serving in 130th Field Company of the Royal Engineers, and is buried in grave II.J.4 at Dranoutre Military Cemetery in Belgium. They record him as a native of Old Fletton, Peterborough, the son of William and Cornelia Neale of 118 Junction Road, Holloway, London. Although CWGC records him as a native of Old Fletton, Atlee was merely a resident there; his birth was registered as "Atlee Elvin Neale" in the Mutford District of Suffolk in 1888. On the 1891 census he was living with his parents William and Cornelia in Masonic Street, Spilsby; his place of birth was given as Lowestoft. On the 1901 census he was living with his parents at 4 Thornton Street, Kempston in Bedfordshire. On the 1911 census his parents were living at 59 Spring Road in Kempston, while Atlee himself was a boarder at 155 Fletton Avenue, Old Fletton, Peterborough, working as a blacksmith; his place of birth was again given on that census as Lowestoft. Soldiers Died in the Great War records Atlee Neale as a native of Pakefield in Norfolk who was living in Holloway when he enlisted in Peterborough. The Medal Rolls record that he was sent to France on 15/7/1915; he was awarded his 1915 Star medal under the rank of Corporal; his British and Victory medals were under the rank of Acting Sergeant. The Army Registers of Soldiers' Effects record that he was killed in action in Belgium and that his father William was his legatee. The award of Atlee Neale's Military Medal was published in the London Gazette on 27/7/1917: Supplement 30209; Page 7769).
