Gnr. Samuel Anthony Evans

British Army 79th Brigade Royal Field Artillery

from:Tingley, Wakefield

(d.11th Dec 1915)

I never knew my grandfather, Samuel Evans as he was killed while serving with the Royal Field Artillery during the Great War. I am extremely proud to know that he was a member of Dewsbury rugby team that defeated Oldham in 1912 to win the Northern Rugby Union Challenge Cup, which was the forerunner of the now Rugby League Challenge Cup. His winners' medal is currently in the possession of the National Heritage Rugby League Museum.
