Notes
Ged Martin (see References) offers this brief biography: ‘The first College fatality came on 20 October. Meyricke Entwisle Lloyd was an Etonian who had spent a year at Magdalene in 1898-99, before joining the Army to fight in the South African War.[25] He had remained in the Regular Army, and was promoted to Captain in the Royal Welch Fusiliers. The Magazine placed him in Northamptonshire, where his father had owned Pitsford Hall, but the Lloyd family hailed from Dolobran Isaf in Montgomeryshire, the address given in his death notice in The Times.'
