Longton men/ Serving with HM Forces./ December 1918./ (Names)/ [Historical notes] There is nothing to indicate which men died. The Notes below state that the fallen are listed along with those who died, however, a comparison of the names of the fallen listed on the church's war memorial plaque (see WMO/303851) shows that only three names of the fallen are included on the Roll of Honour. This is dated December 1918, and two of the names, T Alty and J Blackhurst, were not confirmed as dead until late in 1918. The third, H Almond, died in 1917 in London, and is buried there.
