2nd Lt. Richard William Mark Lockwood
British Army 2nd Btn. Coldstream Guards
from:Lambourne, Essex
(d.14th Sep 1914)
I have been researching names on the War Memorial in the Churchyard of St Mary and All Saints, Lambourne, Essex. 2nd Lt. Lockwood's name appears there, the only local casualty in 1914. He was commissioned into the 2nd Bn.Coldstream Guards, and was a son of Robert and Chinty Lockwood, of Havering Court, Romford, Essex, and is buried in Soupir Communal Cemetery, Aisne, France. He was probably hilled during the Battle of the Aisne in the opening encounters of the War.
