illustrated chronicle soldiers

[pet50ite]

I'm not sure if this will be of any help to anyone but Newcastle libraries have sent out their monthly newsletter and it mentions the release of photos from the Illustrated Chronicle on Flickr. I've only looked at the first two pages so far (there appear to be over 100) and it seems to be photos of soldiers from the North East who had been injured or had died in the first world war.

I was obviously having an "off" day when I posted this, I forgot to include the link https://www.flickr.com/photos/illustratedchronicleww1?utm_medium=email&utm_source=govdelivery

Thanks for posting. Wow, that would be a fabulous resource if it was indexed in some way. I can't seem to find out much else about it - does the newsletter say any more?
Cheers

I would have thought there was some way to search as each photo is individually labelled (hover over a photo and its label comes up), but haven't found out how to do a search yet

but haven't found out how to do a search yet

I'm relieved to discover I'm not the only person who can't find a search facility

Found it!

There is a small magnifying glass just above the top right-hand photo.
Click on that and a new search box appears at the top of the page.
You can search this particular photostream via that. It does work, I just tried it

Thanks - that search works well and you can search on regiment and hometown as well as name. Eg there are:
1,960 Durham Light Infantry, 2,444 Northumberland Fusiliers and 120 KOSB.

Thanks so much to Pet50tite for posting that message and link.  I have found a photograph of my Gt.Uncle on there - he died in WW1.  It is a different photo to one I already have.

Thanks again!
