Yes complete military details, next of kin, age, height, weight, etc etc.
I have far more information on the Accrington pals than appears on that website, without the multitude of errors.
Over 4126 men at one time or another served in the 11th Battalion East Lancs.
William Turner and myself spent 100 of hours searching the records at Kew and other record offices.
I also have the information on over 14000, men from Greater Accrington in WW1.
There are over 168 names missing from War Memorials in Hyndburn, that the owner of that website does'nt even know about.
If the information was printed out, it would take near 900 A4 pages both sides. I also have pictures of over 2800 of them.
Retlaw.
