We have collated lists of the names of men who died in each centenary year and these were read out by cadets in Keighley and residents in some villages at Remembrance Day during the centenary period. For example we read out 1914 names in 2014, 1915 names in 2015, etc., and intend to continue this pattern until all the names have been read out. We do it in this way because there are simply too many names to be able to read them all out in one year.
There are 904 names in the first Keighley Roll of Honour book for the Great War and 103 names in the second volume. We have also found many extra names connected with the area who aren’t on the main rolls of honour. Visit the page links below for the list of names for each year:
The Fallen of 1914 The Fallen of 1915 The Fallen of 1916 The Fallen of 1917 The Fallen of 1918
There are also 275 names on Keighley’s Second World War Memorial plaque which is on the wall in the foyer of Keighley Library.
