This booklet is the first volume (with the promise of another) with biographical details and some photographs of Blewbury men who died in the Second World War. It was compiled using the records of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, personal memories and other research. There are memories of the Land Army and Italian POWs who worked in the fields, life on the Home Front and evacuees who came to the village.
