    For this period of self isolation I am offering lookups for the 26 counties men and women who died in the Great War. This will include those found in all armies, navies, air services etc, and also those added to the C.W.G.C from 'in from The Cold Project' and those awaiting rubber stamping by the British M.O.D. for inclusion in the C.W.G.C.
    Also included are new finds and additions from newly found burials of merchant sailors listed on the Tower Hill Memorial but now known to be buried in Cork. Also I can search by location, so if you wished to know who in your street, or townland, died this is possible.

    If you have someone who should qualify for inclusion in the C.W.G.C. please post them here....keeping in mind the criteria for inclusion;-
    The casualty must have died between 06/08/1914 and 31/08/1921 as these are the cut off dates for the C.W.G.C.
    He/she must have died from the same thing they were discharged with, you must have their records, it must state this in their records.
    You must have the death certificate, showing he died from that with which he was discharged.
    It must say in his records that it was caused by, or aggravated by war service.
    If you know where he is buried and have a copy of his burial register, and he is accepted he should qualify for a C.W.G.C. headstone.

    Post your queries here.
    Kind regards and stay safe all.
    Tom.
