Private Edwin Ridgley Hasse
Edwin Hasse enlisted in 1915. He was born in Kimbolton, Huntingdonshire in 1893. Around that time, his great grandfather, Alexander Cossart Hasse, was serving as a Bishop in the Ockbrook Moravian Settlement and Church which had been established there in 1750. Edwin's father, Lewis St Aubin Hasse, was also a Moravian Minister and like Alexander, died in Ockbrook. Hence Edwin's name is commemorated here. Also on the memorial is the name of his sister, Margaret, but the details of her war service are not known.
