Chapters: Coote Hedley, John Davey, Frank Hancock, Herbie Hewett, Robert Treat, John Collins, Edward Ebdon. Excerpt: Colonel Sir Walter Coote Hedley KBE, CB, CMG (12 December 1865 27 December 1937) was a British Army officer who began his career in the Royal Engineers and later moved into military intelligence. He was also a gifted amateur sportsman who played first-class cricket for several County Championship sides as a right-handed batsman and right-arm fast-medium bowler. He also competed to a high level in rackets and golf. Hedley was commissioned into the Royal Engineers in 1884. He became a surveyor in the 1890s and was attached to the Ordnance Survey. This work was interrupted by service in South Africa throughout the Second Boer War, and from 19061908 by his appointment as an advisor to the Survey of India. In 1911 he was appointed to command MO4, also known as the Geographical Section of the General Staff. During the First World War this organisation was responsible for producing all the maps required by British Empire forces around the world, and in particular mapping the ever-changing trench system on the Western Front. Following the end of the war, he retired from the army in 1920. He was also a Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society and served on the society's council. Hedley's first-class cricket career began in 1888 with the Gentlemen of England and Kent County Cricket Club. The majority of his county matches were for Somerset County Cricket Club whom he first represented in 1886 in non-first-class games. His first County Champioship games for them were in 1890, and he had a regular place in the side from 1892. He also made first-class appearances for I Zingari and Marylebone Cricket Club on various occasions. On his return he played minor counties Books, , People-From-Taunton-Deane~~Books-Llc, 999999999, People From Taunton Deane (District), Books Llc, 1156732255, General Books LLC, , , , , General Books LLC<
