  • Cartwright, James
    Wellington Remembers 1914–1918 021 39895 Private James Cartwright South Wales Borderers Born on 5 June 1881 in Peplow, Hodnet, Shropshire Lived in Peplow; Eaton Villa and No. 12, Eaton upon Tern Died on 22 January 1919 aged 37 at Wolverhampton Buried in Wellington Cemetery; section 3, grave 1671 His story James Cartwright was one of 11 siblings. His parents, Thomas Cartwright and Mary Ann Porter, were married on 5 November 1860 at the parish church in Child’s Ercall. Thomas was a labourer living in Peplow and Mary Ann was a servant from Child’s Ercall. As the years passed the family stayed in the area, and in 1881 they were living at Peplow Cottages in Hodnet. Thomas was still an agricultural labourer, and five of the children were at home. James was born at 12.30am on 5 June 1881; the time is noted on his birth certificate because he was twin brother to Alice. In 1891 Thomas, Mary and seven of the children were still living in Hodnet, at Isle of Want. By 1901 James had left home, and was working as a cowman, living at Eaton Villa, Eaton upon Tern. It was probably here that he met Fanny Buttery, a general servant at the same address, and on 26 December 1906 the young couple married at St Michael and All Angels Church, Child’s Ercall. When the 1911 census was taken, James was living with his parents-in-law at No. 12, Eaton on Tern. He was working as a wagoner on a farm, and Fanny was visiting her sister Elizabeth Dorsett at Hoar Cross, Burton on Trent.

  • The Above Photo, from the Illustrated War News of September 1915
    The above photo, from the Illustrated War News of September 1915, exposes how many cameras of that era were unsuited to action shots, but the caption suggests another reason, that the photographer realised the batsman had an eye on hitting the ball into his stomach! Whatever, it is a seasonal frontispiece and several items inside mention cricket. One article, about disturbing the eternal rest of one of the “Several Battalion Commanders” in my talk last May is definitely not cricket but telling the story will hopefully result in a reverent solution see Page 15.
