St Matthew’s Church Memorial, is one of Hull’s most impressive War Memorials. The community paid for a magnificent West Window, and two marble tablets, which record 139 men from the Parish, who were killed in the 1914-1918 Great War.
The West Window Memorial is a series of 46 beautiful, stained glass, windows, measuring approximately 6.5 m high and 3.5 m wide. It was made by John Hardman and Company, of Birmingham and unveiled and dedicated by the Bishop of Hull, on 4 July 1922. It is one of the finest stained glass memorials of the WW1 and shows the time, effort and expense that the community went to honour their war dead. An inscription stone on the outside wall reads “The window above is in memory of our dead through whom we live”.
The church was sold and re purposed in 2018, but in 2019, the West Window was grant funded and restored to a pristine condition. For details on the restoration, please see the following link https://www.warmemorialsonline.org.uk/memorial/226557
The 139 St Matthew’s names are recorded, in alphabetical order, on two marble tablets. They include 49 men who died serving, with the East Yorkshire Regiment, including 23 “Hull Pals”. Fifteen men served with other Yorkshire Regiments. There are also two Royal Marines, seven Artillery men, two Cavalry men, a machine gunner, a Tank Driver and a Royal Flying Corps pilot. Two men served with the Coldstream Guards, five with the Durham Light Infantry. There are also Fusiliers, Riflemen and Royal Engineers. Six men on the memorial were Officers and three were Sergeants. Another 22 men were Sailors, including five Ship Skippers and two Chief Engineers, who were all lost at sea. Each of these men had their own story and were special to someone. Only two men on the Memorial can not be traced. These are C.H. Kidby and E. Walton. This is unfortunate as someone went to the effort to record them on this memorial. Perhaps they were Charles Walter Kirkby, of 48 Tadman Street, or Maurice Walton, of 5 Albany Street, Springbank, Hull, who also died in the war?
Those commemorated on the St Matthews Memorial were lost on land, sea and air, in all theatres of war, world wide. Casualties fluctuated as the war progressed. Five men, died in 1914; Nineteen, died in 1915, Thirty Five, died in 1916; Forty Three, died in 1917; Thirty Three, died in 1918 and two men died in 1919. Three men from the 10th East Yorkshires and all neighbours at Bean Street, died together, on the same day, on the 4th June 1916. Another man died on the opening day of the Somme Battle. Six men died on 13th November 1916, when the Hull Pals attacked Serre. Four men died on 3rd May 1917, when the Hull Pals, attacked Oppy Wood.
The men are commemorated mostly in France and Belgium. One man is buried in Scotland, five at Gallipoli, others are buried in Egypt, Malta, Germany, Melbourne, Australia and South Africa. Eight men are buried in Hull. Sixty Six men have no known grave and are commemorated on Naval memorials at Tower Hill, London, Portsmouth, Plymouth, and Chatham. Others are remembered on the Memorials to the missing, at Ypres, Loos, Arras, Cambrai and the Somme. All the St Matthews’ men served in the Britain forces, apart from two, John Bigley, who fought with the Canadian Expeditionary Force and Sergeant, Henry Bennett, who served with the 1st South African Infantry. Most were born in Hull and Yorkshire, but Thomas Boden Wilson, son of a tea Dealer, was born in Brisbane, Australia.
Each man recorded on the Memorial has their own story and there are many stories to tell. The Anderson brothers, both enlisted underage and died aged only 18. William Edward Brook, a “promising Lad” for the North Eastern Railways, was killed at Ypres after only nine weeks at the front. James Albert Bachelor, was married at St Matthews and was killed in action, on 27th February 1917, aged 27. John Arthur Setterington ran the Boulevard Picture Palace. George Lill, ran a pub on Holderness Road. His brother, Jack Lill, worked for Reckitt’s and was a well known local rugby player. Henry Wallace, a joiner, played Half back rugby for West Hartlepool and Hull. Another athlete was Arthur Ware Taylor, who played football and cricket for Anlaby teams. Wounded in the spine, he died in Manchester and is buried in Hull. Rawson Nelson Moody, who had already been gassed twice, died a German Prisoner of war, aged 21. Robert Mitchell, was an only child, killed in 1917 aged 21. He is remembered on his mother’s grave in Hull Western Cemetery. Another only child, was James William Newlove, killed at Oppy Wood, aged 22. His parents received a parcel of all that remained him: photos, cards, a red book, scissors, a thimble and some shaving equipment. Harry Waldby another only son, was killed by a sniper, aged 18. Charles Edward Parker, a single man and former railway Clerk, left no war pension records. His medals were unclaimed and disposed of in 1921. Many of the men of the memorial were married and left widows and children. For example, Henry Parker, was an only son, killed serving with the Tyneside Irish. He left a widow and five small children. Henry Wallace, killed in 1917, left a widow and six children at 31, Airlie Street. Arthur Stanton, killed on 28th August 1917, also left a widow and six children. Sergeant, George William Smith, died of wounds, on the day that the war ended, leaving a destitute widow and three daughters. There were also bereaved mothers, like Minnie Thompson, who lived to be 108 years old. She was aged 34 when her son, Alwin Thompson, died at sea in 1914 and was aged 42 when his name was added to the memorial. She died in 1974 – a long time to remember the loss of her first son. Also, Mary Ellen Walker, a widow whose seven sons served in the war and three of them, including twins, were killed in the final months.
The men on the Memorial, came from wide social backgrounds and had a variety of occupations. Some were Labourers, Joiners, Blacksmiths, Apprentices, house painters and coal trimmers. Others like John Prebble Fenner and Robinson Ferraby, were sons of Hull factory owners. Charles Ernest Hurst worked for Hull’s largest Corn Merchant. James Stennett Watson was an Accountant, well known in business circles. Albert Henry McNeil, was a Shipping Clerk for the Wilson Line and sang in the St Matthew’s Church choir. Many were Clerks and joined the 10th East Yorkshire regiment, a pals battalion, known as the “Hull Commercials”. Some were educated at Hull Grammar School, several were Old Hymerians’, while others like, Walter Thomas, was an orphan, raised in poverty, at the Hull Workhouse.
There are 22 Teenagers on the Memorial. The youngest to die was aged 18. The oldest was 52. The average age of all men killed on the memorial was 27 years old. The average age of Merchant seamen, lost at sea, was 37. Not all the deaths were at the front. Lance Corporal, George Leonard Mckee, was a professional soldier, killed during bomb practice. David William King, died in a train accident, behind the Lines. Sapper, Billy Hodgson, was accidentally killed when a trench collapsed on him. Similarly, Christopher Jenkins, accidentally died on his ship, in the Orkney Islands – all reminders that war was a dangerous place, even away from the fighting.
The first St Matthew’s man to die, was Joseph Williams, a Royal Navy Signaller, on HMS Cressey, lost at sea, on 22nd September 1914, aged 31. The last death was, Sergeant, Henry Bennett, who emigrated to South Africa and died of shell shock, in Johannesburg, on the 15th October 1919, aged 34.
The memorial reflects many family tragedies, with ten sets of brothers listed as killed. These were the Anderson, Bulson, Dymock, Johnson, Lill, Monday, Ransom, and Swift brothers. There are another three Walker brothers, from 343 Anlaby Road, – Harold and Victor Walker who were twins and their younger brother John Cyril Walker, all killed in 1918. There are also three Ellis brothers, who were Naval Mariners, all lost at sea. There are also two sets of Brother in laws, Joseph Williams and James Weighton, both sailors, lost at sea, in 1914, and James Arthur Bachelor and his wife’s brother, Percy Dixon. There are also a father and son, listed on the Memorial, both called Thomas Ashley, they died at sea, on different ships. The loss of the Lill brothers was compounded by the death of another brother, Thomas, who died at Hull, in 1918, aged only 14 years and 10 months.
Frederick Carl Haley is listed on the Memorial, but for unknown reasons, his brother, Sidney Orland Haley, killed on 1st October 1916, is not? Similarly, Cyril Stephenson’s brother, Neville, killed on 11th February 1916, aged 23, is not included on the Memorial. Henry Wallace, who was born in North Shields, also had a brother killed in 1914.
Two men on the memorial were awarded the Military Medal for bravery (not shown on the memorial). They were Corporal, Laurence Horsfall, for rescuing wounded and Frank Davie, who was later Commissioned as an officer and died in 1917.
The men on the Memorial came mostly from the Boulevard and surrounding area. Those that collected the names for the memorial clearly visited Parrott Street, Tomlinson Street, Selby Street, Airlie Street, Ena Street and Gordon Street. Many of the houses, where these men lived still remain today from the First World war, while others like Regent Street and Bean Street, were lost to post war reconstruction and slum clearance.
Below is an alphabetical list of the 139 men recorded on St Matthew’s War Memorial. Sixty Three of the men on the memorial, were photographed in the local newspapers and I include some of their pictures to help remember them. If you have any further information, please let me know. Thank You. Paul Bishop
