South Dublin Libraries’ guide with information about online sources available for researchers of British Army servicemen and servicewomen

A Roll of Honour of men from the current South County Dublin area who died in the First World War. The list was compiled from printed publications, local WWI memorials, CD databases and online sources. The Roll of Honour identifies those men whose death record includes the name of the parish in which they were either born or resided. However, not all of the death records include this information, and for this reason the list is incomplete, but may be added to.
