Lt. Andrew Hunter Herbertson
British Army 7th Btn. King's Royal Rifle Corps
(d.15th May 1917)
In 1992 I worked for Cumbria County Council as a care worker. An elderly lady, Dr Margaret Herbertson, told me of her sadness losing her brother Andrew Herbertson. He died serving with the 7th Battalion King's Royal Rifle Corps and is buried in Arras British Cemetery. She was one of the first female students to qualify in medicine from Oxford and was later to become a GP at the birth of the National Health Service.
Andrew's father was the first Professor of Geography at Oxford - Andrew John Herbertson. Andrew was his only son.
