As part of his project to compile a database of soldiers of the Worcester Regiment in WW I, Derek Sims has transcribed the memorial scroll in the Cathedral, and he has very kindly sent me a copy of the list of officers:

Also, here is part of an email I received from Eric Bender:

In reviewing your section on Worcestershire, I wonder if you are aware of

the stained glass window(s) in Worcester Cathedral honouring the fallen. I

have a photo of one which reads as follows:




Members of the Voluntary Choir and Cathedral Guild

Who Fell in the Great War 1914-18



L. Heath

R. Morris

W.B. Jones

E. Langford

R. Morris

C. Walters

J. Peperill

S. Fell

W.T. Rea

F.G. Pardoe



Erected by their Fellow Members and Friends


L. Heath was my great-uncle Leonard. My mother recalls the money being
raised for this memorial shortly after the end of W.W. 1. (Leonard Heath’s
brother was my grandfather, Harry Heath (1881-1958), who was Regimental
Sergeant-Major of the Worcestershires for many years between the wars.)


Some other descendants of Harry Heath still live in Worcester, but will remain unidentified here, as I don’t want to broadcast their details to the world without their permission. Anyone researching the Heath family should contact:
