| Men of Rotherham memorial plaques (photo taken 29 Aug 2023) Click image to view larger version. |
Note:
This memorial has been recorded and transcribed and
attached to the Barnsley & District War Memorials site because a
significant number of men who were born within the Barnsley Borough were
commemorated on this memorial. It is hoped that this will make it possible for
visitors to the site to search for their Barnsley
relatives in one place. As far as we are aware only the War Memorials Register currently includes a transcription of the full names list, and that does not display the regimental headers to each group of men. These will be included here for the assistance of visitors in identifying their relatives.

Photography:
Individual panels photographed by either BarnsleyHistorian or Nigel Croft on 29 Aug 2023.
The polished panels made photographing difficult but by combining pictures taken from various angles and with different camera settings we were able to fully transcribe the memorial.

Names:
Where further information has been discovered for any of these men it will be linked (look for names underlined and in blue) to a page on this site or to an external site. In this way we try to avoid duplication and encroaching on the research of other groups and individuals.
Barnsley born men are indicated by a * (work still in progress) .
