Traditional Porteous Coat-of-Arms


PORTEOUS ROLL OF HONOUR

A list of all known Porteous family members fallen in action

This site lists all men (and one woman) who were killed in action, or died as a result of wounds, injury, ill health resulting from the two World Wars and the Vietnam War, and whose graves (or memorial where there is no known grave) are registered with the Commonwealth War Graves Commission.

A further webpage contains a list of all those Porteous warriors (of all services, and civilians) who were decorated.

Also included is a list of 95 cemeteries in which the graves are situated and 24 memorials on which the names of those who have no known grave are inscribed, in places as far apart as Australia and Tunisia, Egypt and Pakistan, France and Singapore – nineteen countries in all.





This list was compiled by Richard Porteous of Redditch, Worcestershire, UK, who has for many years studied those Porteous family members who served in the British armed forces. It has been published as part of a book entitled 'Members of the Porteous Family Killed in World Wars I and II', copies of which are available on request. Please address enquiries to the email address below.

Please notify any corrections or omissions to Bruce Porteous at the Porteous Research Project. Any information about members of Porteous and Porteus families (regardless of spelling) who served will be gratefully received.
