WW1 S Lancs. Reg. Prisoners' Food Parcels
« on: Wednesday 21 October 15 20:56 BST (UK) »
I am doing research into sponsorship of food parcels to prisoners in WW1, on behalf of the local museum. Looking for meanings and any details of following please :- Liverpool WWSB and CSL. Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi,

Could Liverpool WWSB be:-

 ‘THE LIVERPOOL WOMEN’S WAR SERVICE BUREAU AND ITS WORK 1914-1918’,
The Local Historian vol.44 no. 4 (October 2014) Reeves, Josette,

Could CSL

have anything to do with Canada Steamship Lines?

Thankyou anyway-Lyndar
