WAR MEMORIALS

w war-memorial.co.uk

This growing database of war memorials (3,700 at time of writing with more than 500,000 names) is an ongoing project between Mark Herber and TheGenealogist. Access to the database, which includes about 39,000 images, is by subscription only (prices start at £5 for a month), although the entire collection is also included within the Diamond subscription package at thegenealogist.co.uk. The material is mostly from the UK but does include some memorials from Britain’s former Empire including Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India and Singapore. Memorials include rolls of honour from schools and workplaces, which may lead to more avenues for research.
