Charles Henry Langtree (23 April 1883 — 3 August 1916) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Collingwood in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

He was wounded in World War I while serving with the British Army, and later died of his injuries.

Family

The son of Charles William Langtree (1848-1899),[1][2][3] and Jeannie Langtree (-1915), née McCracken,[4][5] Charles Henry Langtree was born at Moonee Ponds, Victoria on 23 April 1883.[6] He was the grandson of Alexander McCracken (1856-1915), the first president of the VFL.

He grew up on the family property, "Ulundi", at Warrenbayne in north-eastern Victoria.

Education

He was educated at Haileybury College, where he excelled at both cricket and football and at Dookie College.[7]

Football

Langtree "attended Dookie College before being recruited to Collingwood as 'an old boy' from Haileybury College".[8]

Having played for a Collingwood team a week earlier (21 July 1900) in a match against a Bright District team,[9] he played his only senior VFL game, at the age of 17, against St Kilda at the Junction Oval on 28 July 1900.[10][11]

He enlisted in the British Army in World War I, and served in the 159th Brigade Royal Field Artillery with the rank of Lieutenant.

Death

He died of wounds sustained in action (in the Battle of the Somme) on 3 August 1916.[12][13][14][15][16][17]

He is buried at Corbie Communal Cemetery Extension, in Corbie, France.

His name is recorded on the Warrenbayne War Memorial.[18][19]
