Major-General Lionel Frank Page, (December 17, 1884 – April 26, 1944) was a Canadian Army officer who served in both world wars.
Page was born in Yorkshire and was educated at Berkhamsted School. After failing the entrance examinations for Sandhurst, he came to Canada in 1903 to work on Berkhamsted Farm in Red Deer, Alberta, which trained Berkhamsted graduates to homestead on the Prairies. After a year, he acquired land in Red Deer and became a rancher, selling his ranch in 1912 to enter business.
On the outbreak of the First World War, Page volunteered for overseas service and was part of the first contingent of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. He was appointed Distinguished Service Order in January 1917 and received two bars, the first of which was awarded in June 1918. The second bar appeared in The London Gazette in November 1918 and reads as follows:
During World War II he served as the first General Officer Commanding (GOC) of the 4th Canadian Infantry Division, a post he held from June 1941 until December that year. At the time of his death in April 1944, which was caused by a sudden illness while still in Canada, he was General Officer Commanding-in-Chief, Atlantic Command.
His daughter was the artist P. K. Page.[1]
