In Bagneux British Cemetery is the Commonwealth War Grave of:

Second Lieutenant
T. Peacock MM
Royal Air Force
3rd October 1918

The Geordie at War Project states:

2nd Lieutenant Peacock was probably flying an FE2b two-seater aircraft when he was shot down with 2nd Lieutenant G.W.A. Kelty (they are buried near each other in the same cemetery).

Simon Glancey has submitted the following:

Second Lieut. Peacock was killed when his Bristol Fighter F2b C4753 collided with another 11 Squadron Bristol Fighter, A7153 on a reconnaissance mission. The four crew members of the two aircraft were all killed.

Thomas Peacock is remembered at Benwell on B86.01
