Hopton Wood stone, 18 feet, surmounted by a cross, unveiled by Colonel William Capper, C.V.O. "Almost immediately after the outbreak of the 1st World War, in October 1914 the young men of Rayne responded to the recruitment effort and enlisted. They assembled on Rayne Hall Green and it was on this spot that, in October 1920, the present Memorial Cross was unveiled, in the presence, amongst others, of the survivors. Of the 30 who originally enlisted, only 10 returned, and of these, only two were uninjured." an extract from "Rayne, From early times to the present day" TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND IN MEMORY OF THE MEN OF THIS VILLAGE WHO FELL IN THE GREAT WAR 1914-1918 LESLIE (Maurice) BOREHAM http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=368570 JAMES BAKER http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=772025 PETER BAKER http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=772059 GEORGE BARNARD http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=769624 CHARLES (Edward) BROCK http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=929209 PERCY (Edward) CHADWICK http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=1542890 EDGAR (Thomas) FINCH http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=49794 ALFRED GENTRY http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=1753121 FREDERICK (Thomas) GIBSON http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=446499 GEORGE (John) HANCE http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=92451 Grave: http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/trevorwrightdotcom/Memorials/InMemoryofGeorgeJohnHance.htm EDWARD (Elmer) HANCE http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=191139 SAMUEL HANCE http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=785107 THOMAS HAMMOND http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=527435 (Arthur) STANLEY LINSELL http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=1746069 THOMAS (Edward) LITTLEFIELD http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=1593871 THOMPSON CAPPER* http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2947368 DOUGLAS (Collier) CHAPMAN http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=324151 MARMADUKE (Henry Littedale) GALE http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=1465629 GEORGE SHUTTLEWOOD http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2803496 ERNEST SHUTTLEWOOD http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=1640929 WILLIAM TURNER http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=1627158 SIDNEY TURNER http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=896158 CLARENCE (Ernest) WATKINSON http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=819572 (Burton) ALEX(ander) RICHARDSON http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=527703 FRANK (Ernest) RICHARDSON http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=1767601 ALBERT (Francis) RICHARDSON http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=459157 Grave: http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/trevorwrightdotcom/Memorials/InMemoryofAlbertRichardson.htm ERNEST STOCK http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=506170 CHARLES SAUNDERS http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=41159 CHARLES NEWMAN http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=1765661 ALFRED NASH http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=527635 ALFRED PEAGRAM http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=335812 FRANK REYNOLDS http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=513590 GEORGE ROWE http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=264637 Grave: http://myweb.tiscali.co.uk/trevorwrightdotcom/Memorials/InMemoryofGeorgeRowe.htm TO THE MEMORY OF THOSE WHO FELL IN THE WORLD WAR 1939 - 1945 HERBERT BROCK http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2277138 ALEC (Frederick) CHANNEL(l) http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2218570 ROBERT (William) REYNOLDS http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2376090 (Robert) JOHN SCOTT http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2941045 (Edward) EDMUND LAW STAINES http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2087895 There are also two CWGC-listed Graves in the Churchyard of nearby All Saints for 1939 - 1945 casualties: RONALD THAIN http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2427019 Grave: https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1475643 LLOYD (Miller) TIMMINS http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=2427020 Grave: https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1475636 The links after each name are to the records of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC).
