Below is a list of men from Bamber Bridge who served in the West Lancashire Brigades of the Royal Field Artillery.  Most of them served in 286 Brigade, "C" Battery.

​

There are 106 names in the list.  I have included Dr Trimble as he was instrumental in establishing "C" Battery in Bamber Bridge.

​

The 'denom' column indicates which denomination the man belonged to:

61 of the men were from St Mary's (Roman Catholic, RC)

23 men were from St Saviour's (S)

15 men were from St Aidan's (A)

4 men were from the Methodist chapel (M)

A couple of men appear on more than one denominational roll of honour.  Most of the men came from Bamber Bridge but a few came from the surrounding area:  Francis Schultz, Bert Nickson, Tom Craven  and William Molyneux came from Tardy Gate.  Frederick Martin enlisted in the RFA in Bamber Bridge but lived in Walton Le Dale.
