This web site is dedicated to the men of Prescot, Lancashire, who gave their lives for King and Country in the Great War 1914-1919, and also to those men who served and returned home.
Use the links on the left of this page to go to the casualty detail pages, to read about the men who came home and also to find out more about the town's memorials.
This link will allow you to contact me and I would especially like to hear from relatives of any of the men included. I would be happy to include any additional information or photographs which may be provided.
Alternatively, you can email me by following this link :-> mail@prescot-rollofhonour.info
Please sign the Guest Book if you wish to simply leave a message.
Also, please feel free to tell me about any ideas you might have to improve the site
Thank you for visiting the site.

Edward Henry added to Also Served. I note that Edward died in late 1919 after discharge in 1917, and so I am investigating the possibility that his death may have been related to his war service, in which case he should be commemorated by CWGC.
Harry G Fogg and John James Carr added to Also served
