BORTHWICKS - COMMONWEALTH WAR GRAVES
At the Commonwealth War Graves site http://yard.ccta.gov.uk/cwgc/register.nsf there are posted the details of 137 Borthwicks who died in the First or Second World War. These can be found by searching the Debt of Honour register which is described on the site as follows:
"DEBT OF HONOUR REGISTER This Register provides personal and service details and places of commemoration for the 1.7 million members of the Commonwealth forces who died in the First or Second World Wars. (A record some 60,000 civilian casualties of the Second World War is provided without details of burial location.) The cemeteries and memorials where these names are commemorated, in perpetuity, are located in around 150 countries This database makes it possible to identify the exact location, by cemetery plot or memorial panel, where any given name is commemorated. These places of commemoration are maintained by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission."
It is very important that you go to the site itself to discover more about anyone on this list. It contains much more information - country of citizenship, sometimes the names of relatives, details of the burial place, the battle in which the serviceman died, and so on. The site is highly recommended.
