Another place to look is www.cwgc.org. It is the web page of the
Commonwealth War Graves Commission. It has a record of all casualties from
both wars from all the Commonwealth countries. It gives date killed, where
buried, how to get there, etc.>
Also contains the names of 60,000 plus civilians killed.
