Can I ask for some help? I've set up these pages in order to honour those men and women who took part in the Great War, in an attempt to have a virtual interactive Roll of Honour. If anyone has photo's/stories of any relatives/ancestors who served (those who survived and those who paid the ultimate sacrifice) and would like to share them you can find the Facebook page here:

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]The aim is not to just document them from their War service, but by doing some research using the census etc, put their lives into perspective from family point of view. For example on the Facebook page there is the 1911 Census entry and medal card for William James Baker, described as "professional footballer" who played for Argyle at the time, and sadly lost his life during the Battle of the Somme.
If anyone has any pictures of the various WW1 memorials in and around Plymouth they would be gratefully accepted too!
Please take a look and see what you think.
Cheers
