Commemorative Information

Cemetery: MONTREUIL-AUX-LIONS BRITISH CEMETERY, Aisne, France

Grave Reference/ Panel Number: IV. D. 3.

Location: Montreuil-aux-Lions British Cemetery is a small cemetery set on the side of a main road. It is situated to the east of the village of Montreuil-aux-Lions and to the west of Chateau Thierry. Montreuil-aux-Lions British Cemetery can be reached from the direction of Chateau Thierry, following the N3 Chateau Thierry to La Ferte-sous-Jouarre road. On leaving Chateau Thierry via the N3, the road continues through several hamlets. After about 20 kilometres the road starts to descend into the village of Montreuil-aux-Lions, and at this point the cemetery is visible on the left side of the road. Alternatively, the cemetery can be reached from the A4 motorway at the junction for Meaux and La Ferte-sous-Jouarre by following the N3 road to the centre of the town of La Ferte-sous-Jouarre. The second exit should be taken at the roundabout, with a war memorial on the right side of the road, and then continue over a bridge and out of the town of La Ferte-sous-Jouarre, still following the N3 road to Chateau Thierry. After about 10 kilometres you will pass through the village of Montreuil-aux-Lions and on exiting the village the cemetery is visible on the right side of the road.

Historical Information: The cemetery was made after the Armistice by the concentration of graves from the battlefields of the Aisne. There are now over 150, 1914-18 and a small number 1939-45 war casualties commemorated in this site. Of these, over half from the 1914-18 War are unidentified and the names of 16 soldiers, known or believed to be buried among them, are recorded on special memorials. (In the case of eight men of the 1st Dorset the special memorial is a panel behind the Cross of Sacrifice). The cemetery covers an area of 584 square metres and is enclosed by a low rubble wall.

Commemorative Information

Cemetery: LOUVENCOURT MILITARY CEMETERY, Somme, France

Grave Reference/ Panel Number: Plot I. Row E. Grave 9.

Location: Louvencourt is a village 13 kilometres south-east of Doullens on the road to Albert (D938). The Cemetery is on the south-eastern side of the village.

Historical Information: The seventy-five French soldiers' graves in rows A and B are dated in June and July, 1915, and mark the end of the French occupation of the Allied front on the Somme. The British graves and the single German grave cover the period from the 30th July, 1915, to the 22nd July, 1918. From July, 1915, to August, 1916, British Field Ambulances were established at Louvencourt which was nearly 10 kilometres behind the front line on the 1st July, 1916. The Battles of the Somme carried these medical units further east, until in April, 1917, the German offensives pushed the British line back to its old position; and the graves of 1918 in rows D and E are due to the climax of that fighting. There are now over 150, 1914-18 war casualties commemorated in this site. Eight of the graves in row E were brought from the Communal Cemetery Extension at Vauchelles-les-Authie, 1.6 kilometres away on the road to Doullens.

Commemorative Information

Cemetery: HOOGE CRATER CEMETERY, Ieper, West-Vlaanderen, Belgium

Grave Reference/ Panel Number: IX. F. 4.

Location: Hooge Crater Cemetery is located 4 kilometres east of Ieper town centre on the Meenseweg (N8) connecting Ieper to Menen. From Ieper town centre the Meenseweg is located via Torhoutstraat and right onto Basculestraat. Basculestraat ends at a main crossroads, directly over which begins the Meenseweg. The cemetery itself is located 3.6 kilometres along the Meenseweg on the right hand side of the road.

Historical Information: Hooge Chateau and its stables, on the North side of the road, were the scene of very fierce fighting during the War. On the 31st October, 1914, the staff of the 1st and 2nd Divisions were wiped out by shell fire in the Chateau. From the 24th May to the 3rd June, 1915, the Chateau was defended against German attacks. In July, 1915, the Crater, on the North side of the road, was made by a mine sprung by the 3rd Division. On the 30th the Germans took the Chateau, and on the 9th August, it and the Crater were regained by the 6th Division. The Germans retook Hooge on the 6th June, 1916; and on the 31st July, 1917, the 8th Division advanced 1.6 kilometres beyond it. It was lost for the last time in April, 1918, and regained by the 9th (Scottish) and 29th Divisions on the 28th September. The King's Royal Rifle Corps Memorial stands near the Chateau. Hooge Crater Cemetery was begun by the 7th Division Burial Officer early in October, 1917. It contained originally 76 graves, in Rows A to D, of Plot I. It was greatly increased after the Armistice by the concentration of graves from smaller cemeteries and from the battlefields of Zillebeke, Zantvoorde and Gheluvelt. There are now nearly 6,000, 1914-18 war casualties commemorated in this site. Of these, over 3,500 are unidentified, and special memorials record the names of soldiers from the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, known or believed to be among them. Other special memorials bear the names of twelve soldiers from the United Kingdom, buried at La Chapelle Farm, and two buried in Kruiseecke German Cemetery, whose graves were destroyed by shell fire. The cemetery covers an area of 14,263 square metres. The following were among the smaller burial grounds from which graves were concentrated to Hooge Crater Cemetery:- BASS WOOD CEMETERIES No. 1 and No. 2, ZILLEBEKE, on the East side of the Bassevillebeek, 800 metres South of Herenthage Chateau.

In Memory of

Ernest John Rogers

Rank: Boy 1st Class

Regiment/Service: Royal Navy, H.M.S. "Hawke."

Age: 16

Date of Death: 15/10/1914

Service No: J/27386

Grave/Memorial Reference: 3.

Memorial: CHATHAM NAVAL MEMORIAL

Additional information: Son of Mr. and Mrs. Rogers, of 73, New Park St., Colchester.

Through the research of Mrs Joan Soole of Colchester, we know the following further information.

In the 1901 Census he is listed as being 2 year of age and living with his parents John and Rose Rogers of 3 B[retts?] Yard, off Magdalen Street. He had one sister aged 10 and three brothers aged 8, 6 and 4 months. Looking through Benham's Directories, the earliest date for John Rogers living at 73 New Park Street was 1912. In 1923 a Mrs Rogers lived there, so it could be that John Rogers had died by that time. Young Ernest must surely be the youngest Colchester person killed in action during the first world war. His service records state that he was born 19th June 1898 in Colchester, was aged 15 when he signed up, was 4ft 11in, chest size 29in, fair hair, hazel eyes and fresh complexion. He started on board HMS Ganges in Sep 1913, moving to HMS Hawke in Apr 1914. He was lost, killed in action, when the ship was sunk by a German submarine.

Also found was that there were three other young men from Colchester who were killed on HMS Hawke. They were:

Boy Ist Class Claude Sawkins aged 17

Boy Ist Class Marshall Allen aged 19

Officer's Steward 3rd Class Fred Bitten aged 20.

The Edgar Class cruiser HMS Hawke saw service in World War One as converted depot ship for destroyers and submarines. HMS Hawke was torpedoed and sunk by U- 9 on the 15th October 1914, with the loss of 524 men. (only 70 survivors.) She was a 12-gun twin-screw cruiser, floated out at Chatham in 1891. She was of 7350 tons, 12,000 horse-power, and 20 knots speed. Her length, beam, and draught were 360ft., 60ft., and 24ft. In 1897 and 1898 the “Hawke,” commanded by Captain Sir Richard Poore, Bart., was engaged in the operations which led to the pacification of Crete and the appointment of Prince George of Greece as high Commissioner under the suzerainty of the Sultan of Turkey. On one occasion the “Hawke” embarked a Greek military force in Platania Bay and took it back to its own country. On September 20th, 1911, the “Hawke,” while commanded by Commander W.F. Blunt, collided in the Solent with the White Star Liner “Olympic.” The trial which pronounced the “Hawke” to be free from blame aroused much general interest owing to the theory advanced that the large amount of water displaced by the “Olympic” led to a suction action which had drawn the “Hawke” out of her course. Appeal after appeal followed the decision of the first court to try the case. In the collision the “Hawke” lost her arm, and an ordinary straight bow was built to replace it. In 1914 the “Hawke,” commanded by Captain Hugh P.E.T. Williams, was engaged in various operations in the North Sea, in connection with the war with Germany. On October 15th the “Hawke,” was successfully torpedoed by a German submarine. The “ Theseus,” which was in company, was unsuccessfully attacked at the same time. The “Hawke” sank in a few minutes, and unfortunately Captain Williams, 26 officers and 500 men were lost with the ship. Four officers and about 60 men were saved.

He is the youngest known casualty of WW1 from Colchester.

Cemetery: SERRE ROAD CEMETERY No. 2, Somme, France

Grave Reference/ Panel Number: I. K. 37.

Location: The village of Serre is 11 kilometres north-north-east of Albert. Using the D919 from Arras to Amiens you will drive through the villages of Bucquoy, Puisieux then Serre Les Puisieux (approximately 20 kilometres south of Arras). On leaving Serre Les Puisieux, 1.3 kilometres further along the D919, Serre Road No.2 Cemetery can be found on the left hand side.

Historical Information: The "Serre Road" was, in June, 1916, the road leading out of Mailly-Maillet, in British hands, and entering No Man's Land about 1,170 metres South-West of Serre, which was held by the Germans. The 31st and 4th Divisions attacked North and South of this road on the 1st July, 1916; parties of the 31st Division reached Serre, but the attack failed. The 3rd and 31st Divisions renewed the attempt, without success, on the 11th November. The Germans evacuated Serre on the 24th February, 1917, and the 22nd Manchesters entered the village on the following morning. In the spring of 1917 the battlefields of the Ancre were cleared by the V Corps and a number of cemeteries made, three of which are named from the Serre Road. They fell into enemy hands on the 25th March, 1918, but were recovered on the following 14th August. In the cemetery, Plots I and II, containing 489 graves, were made by the V Corps in May, 1917; the remainder is due to the concentration of graves (mainly of 1916) from the battlefields of the Department of the Somme, and from certain other cemeteries, during the years 1922 and 1926-34. There are now over 7,000, 1914-18 war casualties commemorated in this site. Of these, over two-thirds are unidentified. Twenty-one soldiers, whose graves in the cemetery are closely but not exactly identified, are commemorated by headstones superscribed "Buried near this spot". Six French and two German graves have been removed to other cemeteries. The cemetery covers an area of 27,429 square metres and is enclosed by low stone rubble wall. In the immediate neighbourhood are the HEBUTERNE FRENCH NATIONAL CEMETERY, containing the graves of 817 French soldiers, and the SHEFFIELD-SERRE MEMORIAL PARK, a memorial to the 12th York and Lancaster Regiment.
