This is an ongoing project, which now has 14,000
names.
It is simply a surname index of photos appearing in various North Midland
Local Newspapers during 1914-19. Most but not all are of
servicemen. They are not at all confined to those who were
killed.
At present the newspapers consulted include some of those in the areas of
Macclesfield, Stockport, Leek, N Staffs, Derbyshire, Sheffield and
Rotherham.
Information provided includes the name and issue of the newspaper in which
they appeared. Often there is some additional information including
rank and Regt. Whilst we do not hold copies of the photos themselves we can
obtain copies from the newspapers themselves.
At this stage searches are available on the present database.
The cost for this is 2 x 2nd class postage stamps per name plus a sae.
Special arrangements are made for a complete surname.
