Information

There are over 37,000 names on more than 1,300 memorials on the index and it includes where known age, rank, regiment and year of death. The index will indicate where there is further information held in the Library at the GFHS Family History Centre.

Any result which indicates a photograph is available, refers to the War Memorial or Roll of Honour on which the individual is named, a copy of which is available at the Family History Centre.

For the purposes of this project a ‘War Memorial’ is any list of those who were killed during any war and a ‘Roll of Honour’ is defined as any list of those who served in any war.

Researchers are advised to verify the information which they obtain. A number of individuals have been identified who, although killed, are not commemorated on any memorial. These have been included but with the “memorial site” given as “uncommemorated”.
