Major-General Thomas Stanford Baldock CB (January 1854 – August 1937) was a British Army officer.
[3] He saw action in the Second Boer War and subsequently commanded a column of Royal Artillery Mounted Rifles in South Africa for which he was appointed a Companion of the Order of the Bath.
[4][2] He was promoted to brevet colonel on 1 January 1903,[5] and later served as a member of the ordnance committee, after which he was placed on half-pay in July 1906.
According to the diary of the 49th Division's Adjutant and Quartermaster-General (A&QMG), it was on 16 July 1915, while Baldock was at his division's advanced headquarters at Trois Tours, northwest of Ypres, Belgium, near Brielen, where he was severely wounded in the head by shell fire.
His injuries forced him into retirement from the army in January 1916[12] and he eventually settled in Cornwall, where he died in August 1937, at the age of 83.
