In due course we will be adding photographs and documents to the database. This is a long term project which will take another couple of years to complete at current pace and we do update the website when we add new data. Gaps in the data mean that we have yet to find that info. Click the last name for more details of the soldier. At the moment the database is only searchable by one field so we suggest either selecting All in the number of records for display then clicking the column header Last and then scroll down or search by last name. Note 1. where you see just month and year for a birth or wedding date that refers to the first month of the quarter the record was created. Note 2. Where the enlisted date states just Aug 1914 means that we know he enlisted in that month or before the war but the enlisment record was not found. We have used a large number of sources to make sure that our records are as accurate as possible and in many cases we have discovered previously unpublished details.
