About our Project

Why 'Men' of Worth?
When we started researching in 2003, we found only names of men on local memorials and as we felt their sacrifice had 'worth' and most of them lived around the river Worth we felt the name was apt. Also, Keighley's motto is By Worth, which fits rather neatly with our name. We have since expanded our remit to include everyone from Keighley and the Worth Valley who served in wartime.
Our Project researches local people from Keighley and the Worth Valley who served the country in wartime. Our earliest records are of soldiers who fought before the Battle of Waterloo!
We follow all available sources of information and use the information in these sources to create a biography about each person for our archive.

Please contact us through our 'Submit' page form to add a person to the archive.
