Kipling Great War Deaths 1918 KIPLING, HARRY Rank: Private Service No: 28252 Date of Death: 21/03/1918 Age: 34 Regiment/Service: Sherwood Foresters (Notts and Derby Regiment) 2nd/5th Bn. Panel Reference Bay 7. Memorial ARRAS MEMORIAL Additional Information: Son of Annie Marie Jacques (formerly Kipling), of 8, Renishaw Rd., Marston Moor, Chesterfield, and the late Harry Kipling. The 2nd/5th battalion of the Sherwood Foresters was part of 176th Brigade in the 59th (2nd North Midland) Division. Harry died on the first day of the Battle of St Quentin, in the Somme area. After suffering heavy casualties from German shellfire on 21 March, the enemy infantry succeeded in breaking through the Division's position where it met that of 6th Division in the valley of the River Hirondelle. Parties held on and continued to resist but were gradually destroyed and "mopped up". Fewer than 100 men of the 176th and 178th Brigades which had been holding the front line before the attack were assembled at roll call. Two battalion commanding officers were killed in action. At 7pm, the Division was officially relieved but 177th Brigade and various parties of ancillary units remained to take part in the continued defence. 1911Bolsover, Derbyshire 1901 Stavely, Derbyshire 1891 Allen Street, Sheffield Harry senior was the son of Jervis Kipling (b1821) of the Notts Kipling family group.

KIPLING, GEORGE HENRY Rank: Private Service No: 235238 Date of Death: 24/03/1918 Age: 20 Regiment/Service: Leicestershire Regiment 2nd/4th Bn. Grave Reference III. J. 47. Cemetery DERNANCOURT COMMUNAL CEMETERY EXTENSION Additional Information: Son of Henry and Elizabeth Kipling, of Oldcotes, Rotherham, Yorks Location Information Dernancourt is a village 3 kilometres south of Albert. The Communal Cemetery is a little west of the village, and the Extension is on the north-west side of the Communal Cemetery. Visiting Information The location or design of this site makes wheelchair access impossible. Historical Information Field ambulances used the Communal Cemetery for Commonwealth burials from September 1915 to August 1916, and again during the German advance of March 1918. It contains 127 Commonwealth burials of the First World War. The XV Corps Main Dressing Station was formed at Dernancourt in August 1916, when the adjoining EXTENSION was opened. The 45th and 56th (1st/1st South Midland) Casualty Clearing Stations came in September 1916 and remained until March 1917. The 3rd Australian was here in March and April 1917, and the 56th from April 1917 to February 1918. The 3rd Casualty Clearing Station came in March 1918 but on 26 March, Dernancourt was evacuated ahead of the German advance, and the extension remained in their hands until the village was recaptured on 9 August 1918 by the 12th Division and the 33rd American Division. In September it was again used by the 47th, 48th and 55th Casualty Clearing Stations under the name of "Edgehill", due to the rising ground on the north-west. At the Armistice, the Extension contained more than 1,700 burials; it was then enlarged when graves were brought in from isolated positions in the immediate neighbourhood and certain small cemeteries, including:- MOOR CEMETERY, EDGEHILL, DERNANCOURT, was about 800 metres West, near the top of the hill. It contained the graves of 42 soldiers from the United Kingdom who fell on the 23rd-25th March, 1918. Name: George Henry Kipling Birth Place: Blyth, Northumberland Residence: Blyth, Northumberland Death Date: 24 Mar 1918 Death Location: France & Flanders Enlistment Location: Retford, Notts The 2nd /4th battalion of the Leicestershire Regiment was in 177th Brigade, 59th (2nd North Midland) Division. They were also involved in the Battle of St Quentin, and it seems that George Henry died of wounds sustained in that battle. After suffering heavy casualties from German shellfire on 21 March, the enemy infantry succeeded in breaking through the Division's position where it met that of 6th Division in the valley of the River Hirondelle. Parties held on and continued to resist but were gradually destroyed and "mopped up". Fewer than 100 men of the 176th and 178th Brigades which had been holding the front line before the attack were assembled at roll call. Two battalion commanding officers were killed in action. At 7pm, the Division was officially relieved but 177th Brigade and various parties of ancillary units remained to take part in the continued defence. The sad news of the death in action of Pte. Geo. Henry Kipling, only son of Mr. and Mrs. G. Kipling, of Blyth, was received by wire this week, this cast a gloom over the village. The deceased was called up from farm work last year and joined the Leicesters, and was in France ten months. Great sympathy is felt for Mr. and Mrs. Kipling in their loss, he was the only son. Worksop Guardian 19 April 1918 Memorial column in churchyard of St Mark's Church, Oldcotes 1911 Blyth, Nottinghamshire His father, Henry, was the son of Joseph Kipling (b 1842 Mattersea, Notts) of the Notts Kipling family group). George Henry was born in Blyth, Notts, not Blyth, Northumberland as the record above mistakenly states. Nottingham Evening Post - Saturday 14 April 1928 KIPLING, ALBERT EDWARD Rank: Private Service No: 7429 Date of Death: 25/03/1918 Age: 24 Regiment/Service: Northumberland Fusiliers 14th Bn.

Kipling, of 29, Crispin St., Bentinck, Newcastle-on-Tyne. 14th (Service) Battalion (Pioneers) Formed at Newcastle in September 1914 as part of K3 and came under orders of 21st Division as Army Troops. January 1915 : converted into Pioneer Battalion. Landed in France September 1915. The 21st Division was in action in the so-called First Battle of Bapaume on 24-25 March (in fact, a disorganised retreat) and had also been in action at the Battle of St Quentin on 21-23 March. 1911 Mill Lane, Elswick, Newcastle 1881 Darlington 1851 Arkengarthdale Albert was therefore of the Arkengarthdale group. KIPLING, JOHN BLAKE Rank: Private Service No: G/20466 Date of Death: 03/04/1918 Regiment/Service: Royal Sussex Regiment 9th Bn. Panel Reference Panel 46 and 47. Memorial POZIERES MEMORIAL The battalion was in the 73rd Brigade in 24th Division. The 24th division was in action in the battles of Rosieres (28-29 March 1918) and the Arve (4th April), retreating in the face of the massive German attack on the Somme. Name: John Kipling Birth Place: Cotherstone, Durham Death Date: 3 Apr 1918 Death Location: British Expeditionary Force Enlistment Location: Barnard Castle Rank: Private Regiment: Royal Sussex Regiment Battalion: 9th Battalion Number: G/20466 Type of Casualty: Killed in action John is also commemorated on the Royal Sussex Regiment memorial in Chichester Cathedral. 1901 Cotherstone I think it is likely that he is also the “T B Kipling” whose name is inscribed on the war memorial and in the parish church at BC. KIPLING, Jonathan Elisha Rank: Private Service No: 18179 Date of Death: 08/08/1918 Age: 44 Regiment/Service: Essex Regiment 10th Bn. Grave Reference III. C. 14. Cemetery DIVE COPSE BRITISH CEMETERY, SAILLY-LE-SEC Additional Information: Son of Thomas and Elizabeth Kipling; husband of Eliza Ellen Adger (formerly Kipling), of 23, Kempton Rd., East Ham, London. Native of Bethnal Green, London 1878 Bethnal Green St James the Great 1891 Bethnal Green John Kipling married Eliza Ellen Clark in 1897 at Bethnal Green This means Jonathan is of the Ebenezer group. Location Information Sailly-le-Sec is a village in the Department of the Somme, about 20 kilometres east of Amiens. The Cemetery is a little more than 1.5 kilometres north-east of Sailly church. Historical Information In June 1916, before the Somme offensive, the ground north of the cemetery was chosen for a concentration of field ambulances, which became the XIV Corps Main Dressing Station. Dive Copse was a small wood close by, under the Bray-Corbie road, named after the officer commanding this station. Plots I and II were filled with burials from these medical units between July and September 1916. In the spring of 1918, the cemetery was lost during the German advance; Plot III contains the graves of 77 men who died in August 1918 when it was retaken. This plot also contains graves brought in from scattered sites and small cemeteries in the neighbourhood, the most significant being:- ESSEX CEMETERY, Sailly-le-Sec, which was 900 metres further North, on the edge of the Bray-Corbie road.

About the Cemetery Codes used in Part 4 The author researched and wrote this book in the 1990s. It was designed to be published in print although, sadly, this was not achieved during his lifetime. Throughout the text, John Bilcliffe used a set of alpha-numeric codes to abbreviate cemetery names. In Part 4 each soldier’s name is followed by a Cemetery Code and, where known, the Grave Reference, as identified by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission. Here are two examples of the codes and what they represent: T2 Thiepval Memorial A5 VII.B.22 Adanac Military Cemetery, Miraumont: Section VII, Row B, Grave no.

  • The Adoption of Dernancourt by Adelaide After World War I
    164 HELP FROM AFAR: THE ADOPTION OF DERNANCOURT BY ADELAIDE AFTER WORLD WAR I JOHN DRURY After World War I, the Great War, Northern France was a scene of utter desolation. Thirteen départements and about half of Belgium were reduced to a wilderness (Register 12.8.1920, 4e.) Battlefields in France covered an area of nearly 10,000,000 acres, 400 villages had been destroyed and 20,000 factories were in ruins. In important manufacturing areas hardly one stone had been left on another; machinery had been removed, factories dismantled and 75% of the coal-mines had been flooded; roads, railways, canals had suffered badly.1 These are sobering statistics. The Western Front stretched for 750 kilometres from the Belgian coast, through Northern France to the Swiss border. Over 330,000 Australians, mostly volunteers, served in this part of Europe and almost 60,000 died in the fighting. The majority of Australian deaths, around 45,000, occurred in the mud and slush of trenches on the Western Front where the battles were fought and neither side made much progress. Many soldiers were wounded, around 124,000, and a large number of these never regained their health, were disfigured or permanently incapacitated Australians( on the Western Front ). Australians who died in France and Belgium are now interred and remembered in over 500 cemeteries and memorials that stand in farmlands on the outskirts of the villages where they fought. There are about 11,000 unknown Australians buried in these cemeteries. One of these, named VC Corner Cemetery, contains the remains of 400 unidentified Australians who died in the Battle of Fromelles which was described as ‘the worst 24 hours of Australia’s entire history’.

  • CHAPTER VI1 DURING the Night of March 25Th, on Which the Pickets Of
    CHAPTER VI1 BEFORE AMIENS DURINGthe night of March 25th, on which the pickets of rhe 4th Australian Division were, not without a grim eagerness, waiting for the Germans on the roads south-west of Arras, the 3rd Division had been entraining near St. Omer in Flanders to assemble next to the 4th. Some of its trains were intended to stop at Doullens on the main line of road and rail, due east of Arras, and twenty-one miles north of Amiens, and the troops to march thence towards Arras; other trains were, to be switched at Doullens to the Arras branch line, and to empty their troops at Mondicourt-Pas, where they would be billetted immediately south-west of the 4th Division. The eight trains allotted for the division were due to leave from 9.10 p.m. onwards at three hours’ intervals during the night and the next day; but, after the first trains had departed, carrying head- quarters of the 10th and 11th Brigades and some advanced units, there was delay in the arrival oi those for the rest of the division. The waiting battalions lay down at the roadside in the bitter cold; some companies were stowed into barns. During the morning of the 26th the trains again began to appear regularly. On the journey to Doullens the troops saw first evidences of the great battle in the south-a number of men who had been in the fighting, and several red cross trains full of wounded. There was a most depressing atmosphere of hopelessness about them all (says the history of the 40th Battalion),l but we saw some New Zealanders who told us that their division had gone down, and that the 4th Australian Division was also on the way, so we bucked up considerably.

  • CH-Qpter VI11 the Forward Companies of the 4Th Division
    CH-qPTER VI11 DERNANCOUR'T. MARCH 28~~ THE forward companies of the 4th Division, which, since before midnight on the 27th, had been holding the railway between Dernancourt and Albert, kept a keen watch despite the fact that they had marched all the previous night, and had received little rest on the night before that. They naturally expected the Germans to continue the advance at dawn. The outpost-line was very thin, and at certain points along the railway there were wide gaps merely watched by sentry groups. On the straight section of line, along the flats between Buire and Dernancourt-the sector of the 35th Division-the railway rose gradually on an embankment, which, near Dernancourt, became very steep and was pierced by a subway through which the Lavibville road led out of the village. After curving on this embankment around the down, touching the orchards and other back-enclosures of Dernancourt, the railway ran into a shallow cutting, and thence northwards along lower or higher embankments across the folds at the foot of the hill. In the first of these folds-where the railway ran out from the first cutting, across IOO yards of deep embankment, and then almost level with the country again-was a level crossing for a cart track. A platoon of the 47th Battalion's right company held the cutting south of this embankment-the garrison being in an old French practice-trench-and the southernmost platoon of the left company held the low bank north of it, but the embankment itself had no garrison.

  • The Battle of Dernancourt
    CHAPTER XI1 THE BATTLE OF DERNANCOURT ALTHOUGHthe German effort to advance north of the Sommt had not been renewed since March 30th on the 3rd Australian Division's front, or since March 28th on that of the 4th Division, the troops and commanders in that part of the line, like those farther north at Arras, daily expected to see it resumed. The position of the 4th Division opposite Dernancourt was by no means an easy one to safeguard, and from the first the commanders responsible had been of two minds as to the best plan of defence. The reader will remember that in that sector the ground held was a salient comprising the prominent, mushroom-shaped end of the Lavihville down and the railway embankment and cutting that curved round its foot. The forward curve, brushing the outskirts of Dernan- court, was much the most difficult section, and it was recognised that, if the line there was breached, the railway embankment would be impossible to hold, inasmuch as an opponent penetrating anywhere could at once fire from the rear on the, garrison of that salient. On the other hand it was considered important to hold the etnbanknient, since, if it was not occupied, the enemy would be free to cross the Ancre and assemble large numbers in the ground hidden by the embankment, which was so high that from much of the ground held by the 4th Division all that could be seen of Dernancourt was its church tower and r0ofs.l But, if the troops on the embankment - _--- 1 See Vol.
