The Royston History Group have written a book about Royston and District in the Great War 1914 - 1919 which contains a lot of information about local men who served and a list of names on the war memorial.  They meet at Royston Library on alternate Fridays.  

Inscription:
IN LOVING AND GRATEFUL MEMORY OF THE MEN FROM THE VILLAGE OF ROYSTON WHO LAID DOWN THEIR LIVES IN THE GREAT WAR 1914 - 1918

Names:
Where further information on a name has been researched by our volunteers it will be linked here (look for the names in blue) to a page on this site or to an external site.
