FINGAL WORLD WAR I-ROLL OF HONOUR

Estimates for the number of Irish men and women who died during World War I while serving in the British and allied forces range from 35,500 to 49,000.

Dublin City and County was a fertile recruiting ground.

Fingal Local Studies and Archives have put together a searchable list of some 275 men and women who gave their lives during the Great War.

This list was compiled from a variety of sources, both local and national, but does not claim to be comprehensive.

The sources used include:
“The Dublin City & County Book of Honour: The Great War 1914-1918”
“Fingal and The Great War” by Bernard Howard”
“Dubliners and the First World War” by Eugene Coyle
Skerries Roll of Honour,1916, donated to the Archive by Skerries Historical Society.
