Redford Marshall
Redford was born in Shipley in 1894. His father was John Henry, a
quarryman born in Hardcastle, who signed the 1911 census with an X. His
mother was Esther Ann from Howden Dyke.
The couple appear to have moved to Shipley before 1892 when their son
John Willie was born.
On 6 December 1918 the Shipley Times & Express reported:

He is Pte Redford Marshall, Lancashire Fusiliers, aged 24, who was killed
in action on 2nd October.
Previous to enlisting four years ago he was employed by the Valley
Scouring Company.
