Category:Exeter - WW1 Deaths

From Graces Guide

This is a consolidated list of the deaths during WW1 of men and women who are listed and commemorated in Exeter. These are of two classes. Those who were born or lived in the city and died - many were buried where they fell. And there were those who where treated in the hospitals in the city and were from outside of the area. Over 35,000 patients, mostly sent back from France or Flanders by hospital ship and then by ambulance train from Southampton, were treated in Exeter's eight hospitals between 1914 and 1919. Patients were treated for many conditions including gassing, shrapnel and bullets, loss of limbs, eye injuries and illnesses ranging from mumps to ‘trench fever’ and tuberculosis. Many died in the city of Exeter far from their home towns and sometimes home countries.
