Accrington Home Guard
Does anyone know where I could find a list of names of the men who were in the Accrington home guard during the second world war.

Re: Accrington Home Guard
The home guard records have not yet been released into the public domain - they are due to be released in 2009 I believe. There is a Homeguard website - not sure it is actually called that but if you type in Homeguard you should get it. I am sure they will be able to help.
Good luck. Sue 1 |

Re: Accrington Home Guard
Have just discovered there is a website called Rootschat - all information on how to get details about people who served in the Home guard is on there. Hope this helps.
