62 Division Home Page.
My family has an interest
in the 62nd Division as our father served in it during the central part of his
time in the army. My brother had already investigated the relationship between
the fragments of information in the mementos kept by our mother and the
official histories so he wrote this outline of the division’s experiences.
The definitive work on
this subject is Everard Wyrall’s “The
History of the 62nd (West Riding) Division 1914—1919”, and due acknowledgement
is made to this book for much of the information contained in the brief summary
which follows.
That summary is divided
into separate pages according to the stages of the division’s history so that
it can be taken in short stages on the screen but there is another version laid
out for printing for private use, should you prefer it. However, its
publication is not permitted.
