During the 1980s volunteers transcribed the memorial inscriptions in Wiltshire.

During the 1990s the information was transerred from paper slips to a database. This database is at our Resource Centre and on the Internet, where the records are available on a pay per view basis on FindMyPast.

When transcribed each memorial was allocated a reference number, which would be linked the the inscription for every person on that memorial. One limitation with the FindMyPast facility is that you cannot search on the reference number for other people on the same memorial.  Therefore, if you believe there should be others on a memorial you can try other people with the same surname and see if they have the same reference number. An alternative is to use our research service via the Contact Us page.
