Re: Accrington Pals.
Interested in anyone who has details about this individual....
T/Lieut Thomas William Rawcliffe (Military Cross) a.k.a. Tom
Stokes Mortar 11th (Service) Battalion (Accrington) East Lancashire Regiment
Served with Batallion until 1917 then as a Major went to USA as an instructor/advisor with US army. In 1919 returned to the family cotton manufacturing firm in Gt Harwood/Clayton-le-Moors. Father was JH Rawcliffe JP.
It would appear that he does not feature on 1901 Census, however I have a lot of information about Rawcliffe's in Hyndburn/Huncoat/Burnley area
