This community presents the stories of those men from the Holme Valley who have no local memorial in the Holme Valley. In general, this is because they or their family had moved away, or because they had no family to remember them. Some had moved only as far as Huddersfield, whilst others had gone across the seas to Canada, Australia or New Zealand. Whilst not commemorated in stone, the local newspaper did preserve their memory to be recorded here. An approach has been made to the Holme Valley Parish Council to install an Addenda panel at Holme Valley Memorial Hospital to record their names with their fellows.
