Information taken from " Soldiers Died in Great War CD Rom " More information on Soldiers maybe possibly found on the CWGC website* some details listed on this page maybe not quite right. It is a strong possibility that some of the Soldiers voluntered at the same time in "Pals" battalions making their loss in the community all the more noticeable. Conscription was never introduced in Ireland, so all the men and women who served in the forces in WW1 were volunters.  In a town like the size of Athlone, especially garrison town's, nearly everbody would have known someone who died, especially in the smaller rural communities,  Some families would have lost two son's, or children and wives their father's. My own Great Grandfather died in France in April 1916, he is buried next to Robert Brown from Lurgan in Co Armagh and near to James Tormey, from Ballymurray, Co Westmeath.
