Bishop Burton in World War 1 Bishop Burton and World War 1 Bryn Jones Reverse of front cover Bishop Burton and World War 1 Let those that come after see to it that their names be not forgotten 1914 – 1919 Bryn Jones Acknowledgements I gratefully acknowledge the assistance and contributions received from: David Hawes, Peter Quest, Sheila Coy, Ben Byass, Jeremy Armitage, Mark Andrew, Jim Dunning. I am also very happy to pay tribute to the invaluable assistance and encouragement received from John S Dunning, O.B.E; without him this booklet could not have been written. John’s contribution to village life and to the recording of its history in particular has been massive and still continues today. © Bryn Jones 2008 Table of contents Preface Introduction The casualties The memorials The old boys The villagers V.A.D.

Not as you might think Remembrance Sunday itself but a week before. Small groups of volunteers were making light work of clearing the area around the Wayside Cross beside the pond in the village of Bishop Burton. It was the first time I had been into this area which for most of the year is under lock and key. Only when you go there can you see the list of names that the memorial is all about. They are on the face of the memorial that is hidden from the trail of traffic that passes the pond day and night. Looking at the list of seven names I started wondering who they were and how they were connected with the village. The usual suspects were in attendance; you know, the ones who turn up for everything. Among them was John Dunning. I said “Hello” and he replied “Hello, who are you?” I introduced myself but could not understand why he didn’t remember me since we’d met many times on his walks down our lane. I now know there is nothing wrong with John’s memory. He has a twin brother, Jim, and it was him that I had met. We soon finished our work to make the memorial ready for the remembrance service, received some of John’s welcome hospitality and repaired home. Later that week I contacted Ben Byass and asked him if he thought there would be merit in researching the personal history of the seven men whose names appear on the memorial and the plaque in the church. He said that others had been thinking of this too and I should talk to John Dunning. I did and here we are. We started this project not knowing what we would find. Indeed what we have discovered is very uneven in quantity. Some of the individuals we know a deal about; others very little. However, our studies have enabled us to form a picture of what life would have been like for those individuals and to set this in a village context. We started the project thinking it would be manageable because it only involved seven men. How wrong we were. We kept stumbling across other men associated with the village who had died during the Great War. Sometimes the connections were a little tenuous but we have ended up with another nine men who were either born in the village or whose parents lived here at the time of the war. Even now there may be more. - 1 - Although this project is resulting in the publication of this booklet to coincide with the 90th anniversary of the end of the Great War, it is unlikely that the story can be closed. We will be publishing more of the detailed findings on the village web site. This will probably trigger, not necessarily straight away, a connexion, a memory, a discovery that will shed more light on one of our small army of servicemen or even add to its membership. Personal history that focuses on ordinary people will produce surprises in the timing and means of its revelation. There are still boxes of letters, photos, forms still waiting to be opened by a curious relative. Let’s hope they have the wisdom to see their value in helping us make sense of our lives through history. Bryn Jones - 2 - Introduction “Died of wounds”, “killed in action” – phrases that briefly summarise the passing of lives that were also so brief. Reduced still further to DoW, and KiA in official records, they are almost cruel in their brevity. Our purpose in this book is to restore as best we can the memories of those who suffered on our behalf. Family historians have done this for their ancestors; usually great uncles or great-great uncles. But what of those whose family history stopped with the war or with their parents’ generation; who would try to remember them? That was our starting point. We are now too late to talk to people who knew them, so we have to piece together fragments into stories. These stories are not complete but we have made a start. In building these stories we have used the following main sources Census returns from 1841 to 1901 Service, medical and medal records for World War 1 held at the National Archives in Kew. Sadly many of the records were destroyed by German bombing raids in World War II so they are only available for a few of the individuals in whom we are interested. Newspaper and military archives Library archives relating to Bishop Burton and the Hall Watt family The Bishop Burton School log. It covers the period from 1863 to 1986 and contains a weekly account of activities in the school. It merits transcription and publication in its own right. Personal documents and photographs - 3 - The casualties Seven men are recorded on the plaque on the wall of All Saints’ Church in Bishop Burton as having died in World War 1. They are: Rank Name Regiment 2nd Lieutenant Richard Hall-Watt 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards Private William Berridge Northumberland Fusiliers Lance Corporal Albert Curtis Seaforth Highlanders Private Harold Curtis West Yorkshire Regiment Private Ernest Hawes Army Service Corps Driver Richard Hudson Royal Field Artillery Private Herbert Hudson Manchester Regiment Albert and Harold Curtis were brothers as were Richard and Herbert Hudson. In addition we came across the following men who died as a result of the war and were associated with the village directly or indirectly: Rank Name Regiment Private Bernard Byass East Yorkshire Regiment Sergeant Frank Dobby Royal Field Artillery 1st/4th Battalion The Yorkshire Private Henry Evison Regiment 2nd/5th Battalion, Duke of Wellington’s Private Frank Hall (West Riding Regiment) Henry Green Private Derbyshire Yeomanry Norris Private Clifford Quest 10th Battalion Lincolnshire Regiment 14th Battalion Royal Warwickshire Lance Corporal Bertram Wales Regiment (1st Birmingham Battalion) Lance Corporal Edwin Williamson 5th Battalion Yorkshire Regiment George 2nd/4th Battalion The Loyal North Private Woodmancy Lincolnshire Regiment - 4 - The memorials There are not one but two memorials to the men of Bishop Burton who died in World War 1. The first is a tablet on the rear wall of All Saints Church; the second is the wayside cross that stands on a small peninsula in the main pond or mere in the village. Both were created in 1923 by a public subscription that raised £641, the equivalent today of over £25,000. The subscription met much of the cost; the remainder was met by Mrs Eyre, the mother of Richard Hall Watt, the lord of the manor of Bishop Burton at the time of his death in the war. Pictured below is the memorial cross after the completion of the works that strengthened the bank of the mere in 2008. The tablet on the rear wall of All Saints’ church is a beautiful example of the work of Joseph Armitage, a carver of some note in the early part of the 20th century. - 5 - The two flags beside the tablet are the Union Jack and the “White Ensign”, an ensign flown on British Naval ships and shore establishments. - 6 - The panel on the tablet lists the names of the soldiers of the village who died as a result of the war and contains the following inscription: They whom this panel commemorates were numbered among those who at the call of King and country left all that was dear to them endured hardness, faced danger and finally passed out of sight of men by the path of duty and self sacrifice giving up their own lives that others might live in freedom. The panel ends with the rather stern admonition to us: Let those that come after see to it that their names be not forgotten 1914 – 1919 There are two further crosses in the church that relate specifically to Richard Hall Watt and are pictured later in the booklet. The subscribers Well over 150 individuals and families subscribed to the building of the two memorials. Their names are list below and are taken from the accounts of the subscription prepared by James W Young. - 7 - - 8 - Balance sheet Robert Pape of Beverley was paid £6 7s 10d for fixing the tablet in the church. Many of the graves in the church yard bear his mark too. S E Lythe built the foundation for the cross and J Peers & Son built the cross itself for a fee of £508.

  • 'The Registered Papers of the Chief Secretary's Office'
    ‘The Registered Papers of the Chief Secretary’s Office’ Tom Quinlan, Archivist, National Archives Journal of the Irish Society for Archives, Autumn 1994 The Registered Papers of the Chief Secretary’s Office consist of two main archival series covering the years 1818 to 1924, together with a number of sub-series of shorter date span within this period: They provide the researcher with valuable primary source material for research into Irish history during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The collection, which forms part of the Irish state papers, is now in the custody of the National Archives and is stored on site at its premises on Bishop Street in Dublin. There is a distinction between archives we describe as state papers and those we call public records which is not always articulated and hence tends to remain vaguely understood, The distinction has its basis in developments in England where the records created by the courts, by commissions of enquiry, and by public offices and boards were regarded as being of a public nature, whereas the records of secretaries of state were viewed as the semi-private papers of a government minister and, as such, were not deemed to be in the public domain. This distinction was given legislative expression in both Ireland and Britain by their respective nineteenth century public records Acts, which preserved and rendered available to the public legal and court records, but which did not extend to the records of secretaries of state or government ministers. (1) Irish state papers are the accumulated documents received or created by the offices of state which, until the termination of direct rule of Ireland by England in 1922, composed the Irish executive, headed by the chief governor of Ireland, and included the Privy Seal Office, the Privy Council Office and the Chief Secretary's Office.

    The History of 119 Infantry Brigade in the Great War with Special Reference to the Command of Brigadier-General Frank Percy Crozier by Michael Anthony Taylor A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract 119 Brigade, 40th Division, had an unusual origin as a ‘left-over’ brigade of the Welsh Army Corps and was the only completely bantam formation outside 35th Division. This study investigates the formation’s national identity and demonstrates that it was indeed strongly ‘Welsh’ in more than name until 1918. New data on the social background of men and officers is added to that generated by earlier studies. The examination of the brigade’s actions on the Western Front challenges the widely held belief that there was an inherent problem with this and other bantam formations. The original make-up of the brigade is compared with its later forms when new and less efficient units were introduced.

THE NEW ZEALAND MOUNTED RIFLES BRIGADE IN SINAI AND PALESTINE 1916-1919 D. JOHN MILNES A thesis submitted for the degree of Masters of Arts in History at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand 1999. ll Abstract New Zealanders served in large numbers in three campaigns during the Great War of 1914-1918. Much has been written by historians, both past and present, about the experiences of the soldiers in two of these campaigns: Gallipoli and the Western Front. The third of these campaigns, Sinai and Palestine, is perhaps the least well known of New Zealand's Great War war efforts, but probably the most successful. This thesis is an investigation of how Imperial the New Zealanders who served in the Mounted Rifles brigade were. By this it 1s meant; were the soldiers characteristic of the British Empire, its institutions, and its ethos? Or were they different, reflecting distinctly New Zealand ideals and institutions? Central to this investigation were the views and opinions held by the New Zealand soldiers who served in the Mounted Rifles brigade in Sinai and Palestine from 1916-1919 regarding the British Empire.

  • South African Forces in the British Army
    From the page: The Long, Long Trail The British Army in the Great War of 1914-1918 South African forces in the British Army In 1902, just twelve years before Great Britain declared war, the armies of Britain and the Boer Republics (Transvaal and Orange Free State) had been fighting each other in the Second Boer War. There had been an extraordinary transformation in relationships between the countries in the intervening period and the Union of South Africa was to prove a staunch and hard-fighting Ally. Here is a summary of their story: South Africa enters the war on British side; some Boer conservatives rebel In August 1914 Louis Botha and Jan Smuts took the Union of South Africa into the war in support of Great Britain. Louis Botha, former member of the Transvaal Volksraad and an accomplished leader of Boer forces against the British in 1899-1902 had been elected the first President of the Union of South Africa in 1910. Jan Christian Smuts, another former Boer military leader, was his Minister of Defence. Both men had worked for increased harmony between South Africa and Britain since the end of the war in 1902. They now considered that South Africa, as a British dominion, must support the British side. They quickly ordered troops into German protectorate of South-West Africa. Many Afrikaners opposed going to war with Germany, which had aided them during the war against Britain (and continued a quiet propaganda war ever since). An attempted Boer coup against Botha's government failed in September 1914 when Christiaan Beyer - an Afrikaner hero from the earlier war - was killed by police, and a large armed uprising in the Orange Free State and the Transvaal later in the year was also held.
