Notes
Hornshaw and Fowler provide the extra details. He was married, to Sarah Annie, and he may also commemorated on IWM 2663 and 2721 but only one of the two James Pickles from Todmorden who died on the same day are listed there and it is unclear which is which. Both James Pickles appear on this memorial: CWGC lists only this James Pickles.
