A week ago I mentioned the South Staffordshire FHS is adding information on soldiers on local war memorials, now comprising 1065 records. They include the following who served with Canadian forces, likely being commemorated on their original home memorial.

The database includes other mentions of Canada, some who had spent time there, who died in a Canadian-staffed hospital or were relieving Canadians at the front.
I’ve previously mentioned another instance, the first CWGC burial at Beechwood Cemetery. Thomas William Hardingham is also on the war memorial in Great Yarmouth. There must be many more.
