After the conclusion of the Great War, the village of Sutton-in-Craven counted its losses as did villages, towns and cities all across the nation. In 1921 a memorial was erected in the village park to honour and remember the names of 40 'Fallen' heroes from the township of Sutton (either by birth or by residence) who made the ultimate sacrifice.

In more recent years with the advent of the Internet and a multitude of specialised researching websites, it has become possible to establish that not every 'Fallen' serviceman from Sutton was commemorated on the village war memorial back in 1921. Below are the names and associated profiles of eleven additional identified casualties of the Great War, who originated from or who resided in Sutton-in-Craven.
