Veteran's Day Transcription Project

War Memorials on Londonderry Common
Here is a list of genealogy bloggers who have transcribed the honor rolls on Veteran's Memorials.  These transcriptions make the names available for search engines.  This allows descendants, researchers and family members to find their heroes on the internet.  It is a simple, but very rewarding project.  Thank you for participating!

If you would like to add your blog post to this compendium, please contact me at vrojomit@gmail.com
