When war broke out in 1914 Robert Henry Garnham volunteered for the army. He was sent to Belgium to serve with the 4th Battalion, Leicestershire Regiment. He was killed in action on the 13th October 1915, during the 137th and 138th (Lincoln and Leicester) Brigades' charge on the Hohenzollern Redoubt.1 He is recorded as having "no known grave", and is commemorated, like Henry George Pinner, on the Loos Memorial in France as well as on the Boston Grammar School Memorial.
