Central Stockport

Three types of official and semi-official records of local service personnel are included here:

​

​

  • War memorials and other lists of the war dead

​

  • Rolls of Honour

​

  • Published lists of servicemen

​​

​

1. War memorials and other lists of the war dead

 

Unlike the Stockport suburbs, the central area has no separate civic memorials for the various districts, but the war dead were recorded on numerous church, associative, and other memorials. Some of these unfortunately no longer exist, but have been recreated below based on contemporary newspaper accounts of their unveiling. â€‹â€‹â€‹â€‹

​​

(Note: In some cases names have been retranscribed in alphabetical order for clarity.)

​

St Mary's Church, Stockport

​

(Left panel)

"1914 -  In memory of those who fell in the Great war - 1918"

​​

(Right panel)
