Fallen Heroes
To mark the centenary of the First World War, we are compiling a list of Kays who fell in that conflict. As can be seen in the list below, we have included many variants on the spelling of the name Kay; our list covers not just the United Kingdom, but also other countries from which Kays came to fight. If you have names to add to the database, or more information about anyone already recorded, do please let us know.
