Birkenhead Institute Old Boys

World War 2 - Memorial

This is a list of the Old Boys who gave their lives in the Second World War. Names are taken from the School Memorial Plaque, currently located in the stairwell of the Birkenhead Central Library.

There are currently 95 names on this list. I plan to make all the names into hyperlinks, this make take time, but I'll be working on it in the years ahead.

UPDATED - New Functionality

Any of the names shown in blue and underlined, are hyperlinks, so if clicked on, will take the viewer to a new page on that person.

I do not have access to any school information. In fact, little information is currently available, the war records on military personnel are not available to the general public at the present time. It has been quite difficult to identify some of the Old Boys listed. I hope to improve the accuracy of the information as time progresses. If you can help with this project, please contact me at webmaster@BIOB.co.uk
