Matlock Church Lads' Brigade, Company 3126,
which was founded in 1914 (enrolled 11th March), seated outside
All Saints' Church. In the centre is the vicar, the Rev. J. B.
Hyde, Chaplain of the Company, who founded the Matlock Bank group.
To his left (as you look at the photo) are 2nd Lieut. Foulds and
Staff Sgt. F. A. Durrant. On Rev. Hyde's right are 2nd Lieut. A.
N. Hare (curate of All Saints') and Capt W. H. Worthington. E. B.
Foulds, of Smedley Street West, Matlock Bank dealt with the correspondence
[also see VLA4985, VLA4991,
and VLA5223].
In 1915 the names of those serving in the Army who had been in
the All Saints' (Matlock) Company were F. Bagshaw, F. Tomlinson, H.
Sellors and F. Durrant (Derbyshire Advertiser and Journal, 8
May 1915). All four were named as serving in the Derbyshire Advertiser
and Journal (8 May 1915) and a Church Lads Brigade's "The Brigade" supplement
(June 1915), which has an entry for them under Called to the Colours. Henry
Sellors, F. Bagshaw, actually Frank Ernest Robert Bagshaw of Hackney
Lane, survived as did Sgt. Durrant. Thomas
Frederick Tomlinson is commemorated on Matlock War Memorial. |
