Royal Scots - Other Rank PoWs 1914

Here's another list of men; this time Royal Scots who were captured by the Germans on or before Christmas Day 1914. There are 223 men here, the equivalent of two companies under the old eight-company system. For these men, capture may have been a blessing in disguise, sparing them the rigours and dangers of trench warfare but at the same time condemning them to years of imprisonment and poor treatment. Their soldiering experience was certainly a loss to their country.

These Royal Scots prisoners of war are catalogued under two series held at the Imperial War Museum:

B.O.2 1/290 is a 5-page typed list of Royal Scots Prisoners of War submitted on the January 1919 by The Royal Scots Association
B.O.2 1/292 is a 5-page typed list of Royal Scots Prisoners of War submitted on the 18th January 1919 by the Lt-Colonel i/c Infantry Records, No 2 District

Most of the men listed here appear on both of the above lists which, additionally, gives home addresses or next of kin details for the majority. For more information about these so-called 'Princess Mary tin PoWs' see my 1914 PoWs page. The majority of these men will also have records published by the International Committee of the Red Cross. Searching is free; finding your man is another matter entirely.

1st Cheshire Regiment - Other Rank PoWs 1914

There are nearly 700 men on this roll call of Cheshire Regiment men who became prisoners of the Kaiser before Christmas Day 1914. The majority of these men were captured in October and November 1914. Their names appear on several lists held by the Imperial War Museum:

• B.O.2 1/62 to B.O.2 1/65 are four 4-page hand-written lists of Cheshire Regt NCOs and men taken PoW before 25th December 1914; these lists submitted to Sir Ernest Goodhart on the 20th February 1919.
• B.O.2 1/80 is a 26-page list of Cheshire Regt men who were captured up to and including 25th December 1914.  This list was sent to Sir Ernest Goodhart on 31st December 1918

For more on what I call the 'Princess Mary tin PoW collection' click on the link. Many of the men listed below appear on more than one list and where this is the case I have removed duplicate entries. In such cases, where a man is recoreded with more than one rank, I have taken the higher rank. The image above shows men of the Cheshire Regiment and Royal Welsh Fusiliers on their way to the Front in 1914.

My full transcription of this collection includes for some, but not all, of the men, home address, next of kin, next of kin address, whthere or not the man had been repatriated at the time of compilation. I have also added notes and observations to some records.
