    Project well on the way. It is being compiled from all relevant county newspapers and databases created before 1922, i.e CWGC, IMR, SDGW, De Ruvigny's, Rolls of Honour, Bond of Sacrifice, Our Heroes, etc. The following counties have now been completed, Carlow, Clare, Cork, Dublin, Kerry, Kilkenny, King's County (Offaly), Limerick, Longford, Queen's County (Laois), Longford, Roscommon, Waterford, Westmeath, Wexford and Wicklow.
    Kildare now in progress. Lookups available.
    Enfield.

    Most of those counties are on FMP but here we have the most up to date lists. FMP were sent updates three weeks ago including Dublin (8,500 casualties) but they have not added them.

    Thanks Enfield, is there a link? I think my Cork-born Canadian Highlander has been included (one of 22 possibilities) and I'd like to check (without subscribing to FMP;) )

    You can search FMP in Ireland for the Cork casualties. Or post his name here. There are 102 Canadian Army casualties in it.

    That means there are 102 Cork casualties who died serving with the Canadians.
