Further Information About MEREDITH Maurice Neville

Awarded M.C.

Maurice Meredith was born in 1895. He attended Bromsgrove School from 1909 to 1913 where he was a School Monitor, played for the XV rugby and XI cricket teams and was a Sergeant in the OTC. It had been intended that Meredith should go into the Indian Police but a promising opening in business attracted him to an office in Calcutta. He volunteered and at length got his chance to go to the front with the Mysore Lancers in December 1917. He was in the Palestine advance and was killed in action.
