Remembering Our Fallen |
Supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund history society members have researched fifty stories of the men commemorated on their local war memorials at Howden-le-Wear and Fir Tree. Early in 2015 they published their research in a book ‘Remembering Our Fallen: The Great War 1914-1918’ and you can read summaries of each man’s story on the Society’s website:
This month the History Society generously offered to share the complete stories on Durham at War and we’ll let you know when these start to go online. We already have a volunteer preparing the data.
In the meantime, if you’d like to buy a copy of the book and support Forces’ charities, only £5 plus £2 postage, please contact Howden-le-Wearhistorysociety@hotmail.co.uk
This would make a nice Christmas present!
