NOTE: The table below may be used in several different ways to aid historical research. It is shown on this webpage in alphabetical order by surname in Column 1. However, if you copy the table to a text program on your computer, you can then manipulate the data to find out other things, e.g. putting Column 2 into ascending alphabetical order will show all the men who died from one town or village grouped together. Doing the same to column 6 will show all those of one regiment or corps grouped together, and similarly, Column 5 can be arranged to show all the men of the same rank grouped together and Column 3 will group by KiA, DoW and place of death. ( see explanation of abbreviations below). Column 4 will group all those who died on the same day. This last piece of information may be of help in finding out where a particular man died, as it can be compared with the dates of major battles as shown on the WW1 page of this Website via the World Index.

This website is being continually updated. If you have any amendments or additional information to suggest from personal or family knowledge or memories, please contact The Fame of Tipperary Group via the CONTACT button at the top of the coloured webpages on this site or write to the group c/o 20 Davis Street, Tipperary Town, County Tipperary, Republic of Ireland. Thank you.

NOTES: Abbreviations KiA = Killed in Action, DoW = Died of Wounds, Batt. = Battalion.

Where more than one regiment had the same name, the regimental number is shown in brackets thus : Leinster Regiment (1st.) denotes The First Leinster Regiment.
