First World War dead from our area
You might not be aware of the tremendous impact of the First World War on our neighbourhood. Many servicemen who lived in our streets were either killed or injured in the service of their country. This map locates the next-of-kin of military personnel killed as a result of the conflict. This is just one district of York outside the city walls: Nunnery Lane, Clementhorpe and South Bank. The information came from the War Office, but it’s probably provisional and incomplete, as there would have been later casualties. Exact house locations may differ in some cases due to changes to street numbering since 1918.

Arthur Toft and Maurice Challoner
Arthur Toft died in Belgium on 19 April 1918 after being wounded by a flying shell fragment. Maurice Challoner was killed in action in France on 8 May 1917. They had attended Cherry Street School, Clementhorpe, and are commemorated on memorials in St Clement’s Church.Arthur’s parents were from Sherburn, and Arthur spent the early part of his life in Appleton Roebuck. By the time he was eight the family had moved to a more urban area again to 47 Caroline Street, off Bishopthorpe Road, York. By 1911 they had moved to 87 Nunnery Lane.
Maurice Challoner lived nearby at 86 Nunnery Lane, the family having moved from 15 Bishopthorpe Road. Both boys left school at fourteen. Maurice went to work in his father’s pawnbroker business, and Arthur to S. Border & Son, a grocer and café in Coney Street. Life experience could not have equipped them for war which was declared in August 1914.Arthur joined the 1/5th West Yorkshire Regiment in May 1915 and was at the front just over a year later. Maurice left the family business to join the 1/5th West Yorkshires in March 1916. The following September Arthur was gassed and returned to England for treatment. He recovered sufficiently to return to action in June 1917, but Maurice Challoner had been killed in action in May, aged 21. Less than a year later Arthur was dead, aged twenty. Both boys were the youngest sons of their families.Private 201209 Arthur Toft is buried at Hooge Crater Cemetery, West Vlaanderen, Belgium.
Private 201986 Maurice Challoner is buried at Croisilles Railway Cemetery, Pas de Calais, France and is commemorated in the King’s Book in York Minster.
