Joseph Frederick Hargrave (1880 – 19 October 1917), sometimes known as Fred Hargraves or Fred Hargreaves, [2] was an English professional footballer who played as a centre forward for Burton United, Leeds City and Stoke. [3] [4]
Career
A centre forward, Hargrave began his career with his local non-league club Atherstone Town, before transferring to First Division club Aston Villa in July 1901, for whom he failed to make a senior appearance. [5] After a spell with Midland League club Walsall, he transferred to Second Division club Burton United in July 1903. [5] He top-scored for the club during the 1902–03 season and finished his three-year spell with 23 goals in 72 appearances. [5] Hargrave transferred to fellow Second Division club Leeds City in July 1905 and had a prolific 1905–06 season in front of goal, [5] scoring 19 goals in 34 appearances, which included seven goals in six FA Cup matches. [6] He was moved to right half during the 1906–07 season and as a result, his goals dried up. [2] [6] Hargrave departed Leeds City in 1908 for Birmingham & District League club Stoke and scored 11 goals in 15 matches for the "Potters" during the 1908–09 season. [4]
Personal life
As of 1911, Hargrave was working as a hatter. [1] In December 1915, during the second year of the First World War, he enlisted as a private in the Royal Garrison Artillery in Atherstone. [1] While holding the rank of gunner, Hargrave was killed at Passchendaele on 19 October 1917 and was buried in Steenkerke Belgian Military Cemetery. [7] [8]
