Source Information:
In 1999, The Dacorum Heritage Trust mounted a major exhibition focusing on local soldiers who served in the First World War. In preparation for the exhibition, we gathered material (including photographs) from local families whose relatives had served during the conflict. We also began to compile a database of all soldiers in the Borough whose names appear on the war memorials. We used sources such as the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, local newspapers and family testimony.
