There are some names where details cannot be certain, therefore no details are attached.
Carnforth Town Council have produced a leaflet of the Poppy Trail who list details of the people recorded on the War Memorial.
The Carnforth Cemetery was not opened until 1925, therefore a number of them are buried at St Oswald's Church, Warton which was the local parish church.
