Appeal for information about City players killed in First World War

The Exeter City F.C. Supporters’ Trust is continuing to research the stories of City players who were killed in World War I.

In particular we would like help in contacting the families of four Grecians for whom we have no photographic or other image? They each had a strong Exeter/local area connection. They are:

George Thomas WHITE (d 1914)

John Addems WEBB (d 1915)

Frederick (Fred) Henry BAILEY (d 1916)

Edwin CLARK (d 1917)

In April it will be the 100th anniversary of John Webb's death. He enlisted with the Sherwood Foresters, having moved to Nottingham in 1914 for work purposes. He was a printer and designer. Before, he'd been a member of Providence United Methodist Church in Exeter. He'd played for Friernhay and Exeter City Reserves. He was 26 when he died.

If you can help with family contacts or have information on images of the four players please contact the Trust at: trust@ecfc.co.uk
