"To the honoured memory of the men of Carnforth who died after the close of the 1939-1945 war from the effects of war service."

The Carnforth Cemetery was not opened until 1925, therefore a number of them are buried at St Oswald's Church, Warton which was the local parish church.
There are some names where details cannot be certain, therefore no details are attached.
Carnforth Town Council have produced a leaflet of the Poppy Trail who list details of the people recorded on the War Memorial.
There were also a number of servicemen who returned from both wars.
