Military History

Enlisted at Nottingham on 13 March 1912; joined the West Riding Regiment; the medal roll stated that he deserted 1 May 1915; however the death notice placed in the local newspaper by his parents indicated that he had been taken prisoner by the Germans and had died while in German hands at ‘Trolon’ on 1st October 1918 [n.e.p.23.5.1919]. His service Records were badly damaged and don’t really shed any light on the matter. There is no indication as to where Albert Cudworth might have been buried.
