Some of the criteria for getting into this list include being born in the district, next of kin living in the district during the war, working or had worked in the district. It is possible that some of these men will be remembered on other memorials around the country but I think it is important that these men are remembered wherever they had a connection.
This list is likely to have updates as more soldiers with a local connection come to light.
