The Commonwealth War Graves Commission holds a wealth of resources of interest to family history researchers, including casualty records, the wider CWGC archive and the For Evermore database. In this talk we will consider the context in which CWGC resources were created, demonstrate how to search for casualty records on the website and interpret the information we find there, and explore the variety of additional resources to be found in the main CWGC archive in Maidenhead. We will then look at a couple of case studies which demonstrate how CWGC resources can be used in our family history research. We will also introduce the For Evermore project and find out how to get involved in telling the Stories of the Fallen.
