WW II Names Listed by Cemetery or Memorial
The Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) commemorates civilians who died as the result of enemy action during the Second World War, together with service personnel who died during the designated war years while they were in service, or from causes attributable to service.
The designated war years were from 3 September 1939 until 31 December 1947.
Some deaths not meeting the above criteria (and therefore not commemorated by the CWGC) have been commemorated locally as war related deaths, and these are clearly identified in the following pages.
