The Imperial War Museum is compiling a war memorial registry of UK war
memorials and the names of the individuals that are being commemorated. Thus far there are over 74,000 memorials in the United Kingdom, Channel Island and the Isle of Man. See: https://www.iwm.org.uk/memorials To search the memorials go to: https://www.iwm.org.uk/memorials/search You can search by memorial name or person's name By typing in "Hebrew" into the search mechanism, all the Hebrew memorials are returned (166). Over one million names are currently catalogued-2/3's >from World War I.
