|biography = John’s father, a [[w:Signalman (rail)|Railway Relief signalman]] working on the [[w:Settle–Carlisle line|Settle to Carlisle line]], had the fortune of having a job working for one of the larger railway companies, either [[w:Midland Railway|Midland Railway]] or [[w:London and North Western Railway|London and North Western Railway]]. This had one drawback, to relocate to wherever the work was available. This meant on occasion having to travel greater distances, although it is highly possibly he remained in the north of England. Due to such occupational circumstances the family moved from town to town living in at least three different counties: Durham, Yorkshire and Westmorland, which they did from the time of their marriage and birth of their first son Thomas in 1872, to the birth of their last child Lizzie in 1890. They were just like any other family of the time, trying to get by the best way they could.

The Rev. A.J.W. Crosse, chaplain, has written Mrs Bardgett:<br>"I think it will be some consolation to you to know that among the bodies lately found on the battlefield and buried was that of your dear lad. A troop of cavalry attended the burial in the cemetery where most of the men in the same regiment rest. A wooden cross bears his name at the head of the grave. I send you his disc with my deepest sympathy. He died a brave death for his country, and lies near the spot where he so gloriously fell."|source=''[[Cumberland and Westmorland Herald]]''|date=''Published sometime in 1917}}
