Just to draw your attention to this site which is in its early stages.

Includes tips on researching soldiers of the Great War.

Since the above was posted the 'Derbyshire Lads' website has expanded a lot and is still growing. Also the URL of my website has altered to:

http://www.derbyshirelads.uwclub.net/

The home page blurb states:

"This site aims to record and honour the memory of Derbyshire men who participated in the Great War. In addition it will hopefully be a useful starting point for those wishing to discover more about these remarkable men and the events they witnessed.
To find out more, click on:
The County - for Derbyshire War Memorials
The Men - for Individual Stories (63 presently), a Roll of Honour and research tips
The Sherwood Foresters - for details of the local regiment's battalions in the Great War"

There is also a dedicated section for my home village of Tibshelf.

I hope you will pay a visit and if you feel you can add anything please get in touch via the contact details on the site.
