Nottinghamshire residents are being encouraged to play their part in helping to record the names of those from the county who died during the Second World War.
The Nottinghamshire Great War Roll of Honour, which was launched in 2011 and funded by Nottinghamshire County Council, lists the names of almost 14,000 local men, women and children who lost their lives in the 1914-1918 war.
More than 5,000 names have also been added to the permanent tribute documenting the county’s fallen from the Second World War.
However, the dedicated team of volunteers which compiles the Roll of Honour says many names are missing and are calling on the public to help provide a lasting legacy to the brave men and women from Nottinghamshire who made the ultimate sacrifice between 1939 and 1945.
Firstly, if you wish a Nottinghamshire man, woman or child killed during Second World War to be commemorated who is currently not on the site, please let us know via missingnames@outlook.com.
“Secondly, please use this address to send us any photos or other items you would like added to existing or new records. Thirdly, if you are interested in the Second World War and would like to contribute as a researcher or writer, please drop us a line. We look forward to hearing from you.”
