For a number of years I have collected information on soldiers from the Sunderland area that were killed during the First World War. I am now fairly confident that I have information on the vast majority of soldiers from Sunderland, Murton, Seaham, Houghton, Hetton, the Washington area + nearby locations that were killed. Anyone seeking information on a soldier from Sunderland should post enquiries in a comment. Please pass on the web address: http://sunderlandsoldiers.blogspot.co.uk
