--------------------------------------------

(this block of information was sent in by a Woking researcher)

I can tell you that the names on the Woking memorial are only those that lost their lives in WW1, what confuses people to think the names represent both wars is the added inscription that was made after WW2.

The 1939 -45 inscription was all they could fit on the memorial, there was not enough room to list any names as Woking lost a considerable amount of men in WW1, every name you see which is just over 500 are all WW1 casualties.
