Is it possible to find out when a soldier was captured on the Western Front?

A check of the Casualty List in the 4th March 1915 edition of the Sheffield Daily Telegraph,

My earlier reference to this (alleged) entry was clearly in error for which I apologise.  My earlier post amended.  The later 16 Apr 1915 references are correct:

1915-01-01 - 9577 | findmypast.co.uk

No luck in the Times so far, I've been through the lists from 13/12/1914 up to 10/02/1915. There are some large lists of missing for various Regiments e.g. List dated 13/12/1914 for Royal Welsh Fusiliers (See 22 IB on the summary I posted) in the Times 08/02/1915 and a list dated 14/12/1914 for the Royal Scots Fusiliers (See 21 IB) in the Times dated 10/02/1915.

Thanks Max. I've just looked and one article confirms the April 1915 announcement of "wounded, now prisoner".
