Coventry's Blitz Memorial, London Road Cemetery
Over 1200 people were killed in Coventry in World War Two. 808 of these are buried at London Road.
Many of those killed do not appear on this memorial, if you would like me to check for a particular name not listed please contact me.
I am happy to help, there is no charge for this service but should you wish to make a donation to enable me to spend more time adding to this site, even a small donation is much appreciated.

Index of Blitz Victims, part three
I have listed here, and on the first and second page of the index, the names of all those who appear on the London Road Memorial. I have also created another index of 400+ additional names of those killed but who were not included on the London Road War Memorial which can be found by following the link.
If you have a relation who was killed in the Blitz and would like me to add more information about them and how they died, perhaps even a photograph, just contact me.

British and Commonwealth War Cemeteries by Julie Summers
In 1917 a remarkable organisation came into being.
Its brief was vastly ambitious: to commemorate the 1,100,00 men of the British Empire who lost their lives in the First World War. The Imperial War Graves Commission was the creation of one man, Sir Fabian Ware, whose energy and determination brought together some of the greatest designers and architects of the early twentieth century.
This book looks at the history of the war graves for British and Commonwealth servicemen and women, and examines how modern remembrance has been shaped by the work of Ware and his contemporaries after the First World War.
