George Stopford ADAMS
Major, 1st Battalion, The Lancashire Fusiliers
He was killed in action on 11 May 1915. He was 42
He was the son of the late Cadwallader Adams CB and Ann C Adams and the husband of Muriel A Adams, Leeze Cottage, Chestnut Avenue, Guildford.
He is buried in grave E 61 Lancashire Landing Cemetery
Additional information
He was the elder and only surviving son of the late Lieutenant General Cadwallader Adams, B, previously Colonel of 49th Foot who had served in the Crimean War and been wounded at the Battle of Inkerman
He was born in Belgum, India on 2 July 1872 and educated at Wellington College and the Royal Military College, Sandhurst
where he was the Queen’s Cadet
He was gazetted 2nd Lieutenant, Lancashire Fusiliers on 25 February 1893, promoted Lieutenant on 10 July 1895, Captain on 9 October 1899 and Major on 30 April 1913.
He served in the Second Anglo-Boer from 30 November 1900 to 31 May 1902 taking part in the operations in the Orange
Free State and Cape Colony and was awarded the Queen’s medal with four clasps
Then, he was part of the “Lancashire Landing” on Beach W, Gallipoli, 24-25 April, 1915,
On reaching the beach on a withering fire was poured into
them, and many were instantly killed, including the subaltern on his right, and the Sergeant with the wire-cutter on his left.
Major Adams at once seized the wire-cutter and cut a lane through the barbed wire, through which he and the survivors of his company rushed. Water had clogged their rifles so Major Adams gave the order to fix bayonets and they charged up the heights and drove the Turks from their trenches
.
He was killed on 11 May and his Colonel wrote to his parents: “I have heard from many in the regiment of the particularly fine behaviour and leading of your son.  It is far the worst loss we have suffered, and has cast a gloom over the whole Battalion, as he was so popular with all the ranks.”

BISHOP J Stoker, HMS Blk Prince
HMS Black Prince was an armoured cruiser serving in the 1st Cruiser Squadron who participated in the Battle of Jutland, where she was sunk with a heavy loss of life. The circumstances are mystery. 
During the battle, the First Cruiser Squadron was deployed ahead of the main Grand Fleet. Black Prince lost contact with the Squadron as it came into contact with German forces, at about 17.42 hours.  HMS Defence and HMS Warrior were
heavily engaged by German ships, with HMS Defence blowing up and HMS Warrior receiving heavy damage, which caused her to sink. There were no positive sightings of HMS Black Prince by the British fleet after that, although a wireless signal from her was received at 20.45 hours, reporting a submarine
sighting.
During the night of 31 May/1 June, the British destroyer HMS
Spitfire, badly damaged after colliding with the German battleship Nassau, sighted what appeared to be a German battlecruiser, with two widely-spaced funnels, described as being "...a mass of fire from foremast to mainmast, on
deck and between decks. Flames were issuing out of her from every corner." The mystery ship exploded at about midnight.  It was later thought that the burning ship may have been HMS Black Prince.
The German account of the ship's sinking was that HMS Black Prince briefly engaged the German battleship Rheinland at about 23:35 hours, scoring two hits with 6-inch shells. Then the German battleship Thüringen fixed HMS Black Prince in her searchlights and opened fire. Other German ships, including battleships Nassau, Ostfriesland, and Friedrich der Grosse, joined in the bombardment. HMS Black Prince was hit by at least twelve heavy shells and several smaller ones, sinking within 15 minutes.
There were no survivors from HMS Black Prince's crew, all 857 being killed.

HOLT E A  Gunner, RN HMS Blk Prince
HMS Black Prince was an armoured cruiser serving in the 1st Cruiser Squadron who participated in the Battle of Jutland, where she was sunk with a heavy loss of life. The circumstances are a mystery.
During the battle, the First Cruiser Squadron was deployed ahead of the main Grand Fleet. Black Prince lost contact with the Squadron as it came into contact with German forces, at about 17.42 hours.  HMS Defence and HMS Warrior were heavily engaged by German ships, with HMS Defence blowing up and HMS Warrior receiving heavy damage, which caused her to sink. There were no positive sightings of HMS Black Prince by the British fleet after that, although a wireless signal from her was received at 20.45 hours, reporting a submarine
sighting.
During the night of 31 May/1 June, the British destroyer HMS
Spitfire, badly damaged after colliding with the German battleship Nassau, sighted what appeared to be a German battlecruiser, with two widely-spaced funnels, described as being "...a mass of fire from foremast to mainmast, on
deck and between decks. Flames were issuing out of her from every corner." The mystery ship exploded at about midnight.  It was later thought that the burning ship may have been HMS Black Prince.
The German account of the ship's sinking was that HMS Black Prince briefly engaged the German battleship Rheinland at about 23:35 hours, scoring two hits with 6-inch shells. Then the German battleship Thüringen fixed HMS Black Prince in her searchlights and opened fire. Other German ships, including battleships Nassau, Ostfriesland, and Friedrich der Grosse, joined in the bombardment. HMS Black Prince was hit by at least twelve heavy shells and several smaller ones, sinking within 15 minutes. 
There were no survivors from HMS Black Prince's crew, all 857 being killed.

The Huntingdon Post 8 December 1916:
“The residents of Ramsey and the district heard with delight
on Monday that Captain Hugh Richard Longbourne, Royal West Surrey Regiment, had been awarded the Distinguished Service Order in recognition of his gallantry and devotion to duty at the front.  The following is the official report of the
gallant service for which Capt. Longbourne was awarded the distinction:-  
“He crawled to within 25 yards of an enemy strong point and bombed the enemy with good effect.  Later, with a sergeant and a Private he rushed the strong point, capturing a machine gun and 46 unwounded prisoners.”
Later it reported: Captain H R Longbourne DSO is a son of the
late Charles R V Longbourne of Ripsley, Liphook.  He comes from a military family which is well known throughout the county.  One of his brothers Colonel Frank Longbourne, received the DSO some time ago; another brother, Driver J. Longbourne came over from Canada, and is now at the Front, while a third brother, who also came from Canada, is likewise serving his country with the colours.  Capt. Longbourne for the past eight years has been associated with Mr P L Rogers JP of Ramsey, in the firm of Rogers and Longbourne, agents for Lord De Ramsey’s and other estates in the county. 
At the outbreak of war he was officer commanding the Ramsey Company of the Hunts. Cyclist Battalion, and subsequently he did duty with the Battalion on the Yorkshire coast.  He was afterwards transferred to the West Surreys and has been at the Front a few months.  He is a typical officer, fearless, respectful, with the instinct for leadership.  Those serving under him could not help feeling complete confidence in his strength and capability.  Since proceeding to France he has (one who knows him states) again and again been highly spoken of by reason of his cool and confident handling of his men and his unfailing judgement.  A keen sportsman, it is only to be expected that, however hazardous an undertaking he sets out to fulfil – as witness his exploit for which he was awarded the DSO – he would carry it out with a true sporting spirit, and an enthusiasm which is infinitely surprising.  The few lines which sum up his achievement in the trenches, brief as they are, conjure forth his daring, sacrifice and devotion to duty.  Crawling to within a few yards of an enemy stronghold is in itself an adventure attended by imminent risk, one in which many a good soldier has paid the penalty; but to follow this by a bombardment of the enemy unaided all question an experience calculated to try the nerve and determination of the bravest. Capt. Longbourne did this, and more.  The latter part of the short official report covers what must have been an exceptionally courageous and brilliant feet.  Accompanied only by a sergeant and private he rushed the point at which he aimed his bombs, and bagged, not only a machine gun, but 46 unwounded prisoners – 15 to 1.  One can imagine the reception he and his men received when they returned with their haul! 
While at Ramsey, Capt.

Additional information
From the obituary in Cranleigh School magazine, December
1915:
EH Lunn came to Cranleigh in September 1906, and was in III South (boarding house). He rose to the Sixth Form, was elected a Probationer Prefect, and left the School in 1910.
He was in the Canadian Rockies when war was declared, and first heard of the news from an Indian Chief. He went at once to the nearest Railway Station, 100 miles distant, and thence travelled to Calgary, where he enlisted, and was posted to the 10th Western Canadian Regiment, serving first as a Despatch Rider and latterly in the machine-gun section. After training at Valcartier and on Salisbury Plain, his battalion proceeded to
France. Shortly afterwards he developed pneumonia, and was in hospital at  St. Nazaire. Making a rapid recovery he was, in April again sent into the fighting line.  After a very strenuous time at Ypres and Festubert, he was wounded by shrapnel in June.  Spending but a fortnight in hospital and declining an offer of ten days in a convalescent camp, he rejoined his comrades in the trenches, was mortally wounded on 29 July, he died two days later and was buried at Bailleul.
His Captain wrote of him as follows: “He died like a soldier and a man, and his loss was keenly felt, as he was both a fine soldier  and a loyal comrade.”
He had served 3 years with OTC in Cranleigh
