About the Nottinghamshire Roll of Honour

This project has been funded, principally, by Nottinghamshire County Council which initially built and hosted the Roll of Honour and provided technical expertise and support. Later development of the site has been undertaken by Tailwind Digital. Other contributions have been made by The National Lottery Heritage Fund and Nottingham City Council.

Volunteer information gatherers have collected names from across Nottinghamshire on memorials in village and town centres, chapels, churches, churchyards, parish halls, factories and other work places, schools and sports clubs. Fatalities unrecorded or missing from physical monuments have been added via a series of Virtual Memorials.

Individual stories have been brought to life through the addition of biographical detail, narrative, photographs, personal accounts and letters. Extensive use has been made of entries from war diaries, service records, the Commonwealth War Graves Commission Debt of Honour Register and other on-line sources.
