The Old Elizabethan Association

This memorial contains the names of all the Old Elizabethans who died in the two World Wars, and is designed to commemorate their sacrifice.

One hundred and ten Old Elizabethans were believed to have died in the Great War; although they tried to compile a complete memorial, some names may have eluded them.

There were eight sets of brothers who died; they ranked from Brigadier-General to Private; they were aged 63 to 18.

They served with all three services, at sea, on land and in the air. They enlisted and fought with units raised in Guernsey, England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland and with overseas units from Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, Nepal and Uganda.

Simple ideas can become the most complicated of projects. Thus it was with the Elizabeth College Book of Remembrance. For some years now, John Willis, who was, at that time, the Hon Sec of the OE Association, had envisaged a Book of Remembrance in which would be inscribed the names of the OEs who fell in the two world wars. His uncle was one of those killed in the Second World War. The initial idea was fairly low-key and simple – pages of names printed by College resources, set out in a clear and easy-to-read manner.

The names, however, would not just be put down in any old way, and the men behind the names started to become very real. The Principal, now thoroughly engaged by the idea of this large number of pupils lost from a small school, cross-checked the names of the fallen on the Memorial in College Hall and on the list within the Register. Discrepancies! Worse still, cross-checking with the entries in the Register revealed even further discrepancies. Each entry had to be scrutinised to ascertain why. Thus the Fallen had suddenly become real people with real stories.
