Adamthwaites in Uniform
Many members of the Adamthwaite family have served their
country in war and in peacetime - some made the highest sacrifice and are
honoured in cemeteries at home and in the battlefields. You can find
out more at the Commonwealth War Graves Commission website . I hope
these pages can serve as a small tribute to their bravery.
 
As always, the information
shown is known to be incomplete, particularly for soldiers, sailors and
airmen who served in WWII. If you can help with more information
about any of your ancestors who feature on these pages or tell me about any
who are missing from the lists, please let me know. We would also
particularly welcome any recollections of war service which have been passed
down within families.
