Archibald
Claude |
 Lieutenant
Archibald Claude Bates was awarded the Military Cross after he carried
on in battle despite being buried by shells several times during
the First World War.
He
displayed this courage while in action with his 6th Northamptonshire
Battalion Regiment at Regina Trench on the Somme, October 25-29,
1916. Just a month before he had also been involved in severe fighting
in the taking of the Thiepval Ridge, also on the Somme.
Archibald
was the son of Mr H Bates of Bennetts End Road, Hemel Hempstead.
He enlisted at the start of the war and rose from the ranks to become
2nd Lieutenant in March 1916.
Following
his bravery on the Somme he was transferred to the Middlesex Regiment
as acting Adjudant but became ill shortly before receiving full
rank. When he recovered he went back to his old battalion and was
mortally wounded at Poelcapelle when the 3rd Battle of Ypres was
in full cry. He died from his wounds in a Casualty Clearing Station
on October 20, 1917, aged 23. He is buried in Mendinghem Military
Cemetery in Belgium.
Archibald’s
three brothers, Percy, Harry, and half brother George Dyer, also
served in the war. Percy was in the Norfolk Regiment, Harry was
in the Scots Guards and George was in the First Battalion Hertfordshire
Regiment and was killed in action on October 14, 1916. |

Plot XXII. Row A. Grave 2.
He
was born at Finsbury Road barracks in the spring of 1896, the son
of sergeant major Edward Hawkins, 6th Battalion, Royal Fusiliers
and Henrietta Sarah Hawkins. The family later moved to 109, Ebberns
Rd., Apsley End, where Herbert was employed in the card department
of John Dickinson 's paper mills at Apsley.

but at the time of his death on 3 November 1917 he was acting sergeant.
On 2 November the battalion took part in the dawn attack on the
village of Sheik Hasan on the seaward side of the town of Gaza.
The attack was successful taking most of its objectives and capturing
182 prisoners. For the rest of the 2nd and 3rd November the battalion
was under heavy shellfire and it is likely that it was during this
period that he was killed.
