The Cheshire Roll Remembers the Civilians from Cheshire who were killed during the War

The Roll is continuingly moving forward and listing as many names as we are able, this now includes civilians killed in Cheshire during air raids or accidents that occurred due to war work.

As always, we need your help to build up this new remembrance and appreciate any help you may be able to offer us. You may know someone already listed and have more information or even a picture of them, it is not an easy task for us to locate pictures of civilians so we are reliant on the general public to offer these up if they have them.

We are also including a new timeline which dates the air raids and locations across Cheshire, where ever possible we aim to connect the civilian’s killed in the raid.
