His Captain, J. S. Duff wrote the following to Jim's mother;
"It is my sad part to write and tell you of your son's death. He was killed, poor chap, doing his 'job' by a high explosive shell and suffered no pain as he died instantly. He was in charge of the battalion dump before an attack which was a most successful one, and a lot was due to him in the way he had arranged everything for every company as they came to draw their stores. We shall miss him, as he was very popular during the time he was with us. He has done what many others have done before him during this war, and that is made the supreme sacrifice for the cause of Right."

May is to have anything she desires.
The sad loss of my paternal Grandfather’s eldest son. He has no known grave but is remembered with honour at the Arras Memorial, in the Faubourg-d’Amiens Cemetery, Pas de Calais, France.
My Uncle Thomas Wright BANCROFT was born on the 30 September 1891 in Anfield, Liverpool. He was the 2nd child and eldest son of Thomas Wright Bancroft Snr. & Margaret Bancroft nee Ashcroft. He lived at 8 Ashleigh, Anfield, Liverpool with his parents & seven siblings. In the 1911 census Thomas Wright Bancroft is living at 8 Ashleigh, Anfield, Liverpool, the home of his father and mother, Thomas Wright Bancroft, Margaret and his brothers and sisters. He is 19 years of age and his occupation is a clerk with an African shipping agent. I have been unable to find records of his military service in WW1 through draft or enlistment as they must have been destroyed. In 1940 there was a World War Two bombing raid on the War Office in London where the records were held. During this raid, a large portion (approximately 60 percent) of the 6.5 million records was destroyed by fire. The surviving service records have become known as the 'Burnt Documents'. I do have a copy of his British Army WWI Medal Rolls Index Card, 1914-1920. The information recorded and found on the card include his Regiment and and Regimental Number. He was a private in the 13th Battalion Kings Liverpool Regiment. I do know that from information given to me by my father, (Leonard Ashcroft Bancroft, his youngest brother) that Thomas was wounded some time before he was killed in action. This can be confirmed by the wound stripe worn on his uniform in his photo c 1917. He had apparently been at home on leave and it was only two weeks after he had returned to the front that he was killed in action; blown to pieces by shell fire (the main cause of death for soldiers in the First World War) on the 13th June 1917 in Arras, Pas de Calais, France. He has no known grave but is remembered with honour at the Arras Memorial, in the Faubourg-d’Amiens Cemetery, Pas de Calais, France. I have a copy of Thomas W. Bancroft's Will dated 5th July 1916 and it includes the wish ……….. May (his Fiancée) is to have anything she desires.
An uncle I sadly never met, but is truly ‘not forgotten’ and I have had the honour to visit his War Memorial, in the Faubourg-d’Amiens Cemetery, Pas de Calais, France with my wife and our children to pay our respect for his sacrifice. His bothers, Samuel Herbert and Stephen who also saw active service, would return from this dreadful conflict relatively unscathed.
It was only last year that researching local newspaper archives I was able to confirm that Thomas was engaged to May through the death notices in the Liverpool Echo
Never forgotten. His name 'Liveth For Evermore'
Another of George's Uncles - Alfred Herbert Jardine - was killed in the Great War, you can see his story on the Chocques Military Cemetery page

"I deeply regret to inform you of the death of your husband, Sergt. J. Batty, who was killed in action on February 16th. I don't know whether you have received news of his death, but I will try to describe what happened as I was not very far away when he was killed. On Saturday morning, February 16th, the Germans were bombarding our trenches, and about 11.30 a.m. one of the shells burst in the trench, killing your husband and wounding several others. I immediately rushed up to him, but arrived too late, as he must have been killed instantaneously. Your husband had been my platoon sergeant for over five months, and he was the best N.C.O. I ever had. He could be trusted to do anything, and always did it well. I had the greatest confidence in him, and he never failed me in anything. He was immensely popular with the N.C.O.'s and men of his platoon and a good sportsman, always willing to take part in our platoon football matches and games. I don't know how to express my sympathy and sorrow, but let me assure you of the deepest sympathy of the platoon and myself."

He was buried where he was killed, in a place which will be advised to you later. I knew your husband very well, as he had been in my company for a long time, and I can assure you that no braver man and stauncher friend could be found in his company. Everyone here mourns his death, and we all send you are sincere sympathy in your terrible loss."

"I write to tell you the worst has happened, James was killed on Tuesday, the 24th, while in the thick of the fighting.
