tinhutjohn Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 Just a heads up that you can get details of the men of the 21st Battalion Canadian Expeditionary Force at Al Lloyd's fascinating website at http://21stbatallion.ca/ He has collected hundreds of photos of the men, their gravemarkers (GWGC and others) and a long list of biographies. There are also lots of photos and history of the battalion itself. Also, Library and Archives Canada have published on line a number of the Service records in pdf format. It seems that if they get a request for a copy of the service record, they take that opportunity to scan the file to pdf. Sarge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's right, gwentleman, the 21sters have done tremendous work - absolutely amazing how much info. a diligent bunch of people can pull together from that far back, mostly by countless hours poring over old paper. The site is well worth a visit for anyone with interests in WWI. Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
