Northumberland Fusiliers - PoW Other Ranks 1914


The following men were all serving with regular battalions of The Northumberland Fusiliers, when they became prisoners of war of the Germans on or before Christmas Day 1914. There are 152 names in this list. Read more about this Prisoner of War data source on my 1914 PoWs page.

This data has been transcribed from B.O.2 1/194 at the Imperial War Museum. This is a seven-page typed list of men dated 20th January 1919 and sent by the officer in charge of infantry records at York.

My full transcription of this Northumberland Fusiliers Prisoners of War roll call of other ranks (not reproduced here) also contains battalion, home address or next of kin address, additional notes and remarks.

The full transcription is available for sale as a download or CD for £10. Contact me if you would like to purchase a copy.
