High Resolution Pictures of War Memorials
on the Genealogy in Hertfordshire web site
This list is being extended every week in preparation to
the 100 year anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War. Most
pictures online are too small to read the names and I plan to
photograph as many memorials as practical so that people can examine
the names online for themselves.
Normally clicking on the war memorial picture will
display a picture of up to 1024 x 768 pixels (normally sufficient to
read the names) but in many cases higher resolution pictures are
available on request.
