In Memoriam

How to Notify the Association of a death.

Please contact the Association Office in the first instance where possible, providing as much detail as possible, in particular, to whom condolences should be sent to and funeral arrangements, as they become known, so that these can be passed on to those we feel may wish to know.  Where requested and if possible the Association will provide an association standard bearer and flag for the coffin. The Yorkshire Volunteers Band are often able to supply a Bugler. The funeral organiser should contact them directly.

Notifications of deaths received by the Association are published as Latest News Items. At some point following the funeral they will be transferred to the ‘In Memoriam’ list, on the right side of this page.  If you wish to supply a portrait photo to place with the Association website notification page please eMail it direct to the editor.

Please note that the Association Office is only manned part time from Tuesday to Thursday, between 10:00hrs and 14:00hrs. The phone is redirected to the Association Secretary when the office is closed.

Obituaries notified to the Association, by the relevant family, are printed in the Regimental Journal, the Iron Duke. Out of print copies are available for free download from the List of ID Journals page.

Details received for each notification will be added to the relevant notice, as an update on receipt.

The Regimental Archives has information on almost all the Gravesite’s of soldiers who lost their lives in battle

or from accident or illness whilst in service.  Many, but certainly not all places the regiment were in active service, are noted below
