21st - 31st October 1920

22nd October 1920

John Henry Markham (see 30th April 1919), who had been transferred to the Army Reserve Class Z in April 1919, was awarded a one-off gratuity payment of £35 in respect of a 1% disability which he had suffered whilst in service (details unknown). 

26th October 1920

Majs. James Christopher Bull MC (see 19th March) and William Norman Town (see 19th March) formally relinquished their commissions ‘on completion of service’; both would retain the rank of Major.

Bertie Constantine (see 8th November 1918), who had been discharged from the Army as no longer physically fit for service on account of his wounds in November 1918; was awarded a one-off gratuity payment of £45 10s. in lieu of any further pension payments.

A review of the pension award in the case of Percy France (see 16th March 1919), who had been discharged from the Army in March 1919, resulted in his assessed level of disability being set at less than 20% and his weekly pension at 5s. 6d.

Ann Benson, mother of the late Pte. Fred Benson (see 15th July 1920), who had been killed in action in July 1916, died. 

27th October 1920

Billy Rawlinson (see 14th May), who had been discharged from the Army as no longer physically fit for service on account of his wounds in July 1917) was married, at Burton-in-Lonsdale Parish Church, to Elizabeth Alice Edmondson.
