WWI & WWII POW Records

[Tracey]

so that I guess that if there are any Japanese records they will have an appropriate alternative.

I'm not convinced that there are Japanese POWs listed there. I had a relative who was a POW of the Japanese in the Phillipines, and there is no sign of him in a search. Not sure if it would be differnent for POWs who were held in Japan.

I checked my S-I-L grandad who was in Changi and he isnt there. I supose like always certain sites get you all excited only find its an ongoing project and far from complete.

Hi all

The national archives have details

But you have to go there for these or pay a researcher by the looks of it. I didnt see they were available to download.

The infintry records office used to be in Atholl street in Perth
