The cemeteries of Hull contain hundreds of First World War casualties. Hull Northern cemetery for example, contains 114 Commonwealth War Graves, Hull Western cemetery conatins another 395. Hedon Road cemetery in East Hull includes 213, World War 1 graves. The churches in Hull and the surrounding towns and villages also contain other graves from the Great War. While most of these are local men, they also include men from other parts of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth, who died in the many Hull hospitals set up during the war. Many died at home in training, or accidents, of wounds, illness and influenza. Some while boarding ships and loading cargo.&nbsp;<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: black; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;\">Others were sailors washed ashore or repatriated prisoners who used Hull as the main port of return. Other casulaties buried in Hull do not appear in any war military records, particularly those discharged from the army during the war, or those who died after, before being demobilized.<span class=\"apple-converted-space\"><\/span><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';\">&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><span class=\"apple-converted-space\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'; color: black; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% white;\">Similarly, the numbers of Hull servicemen who committed suicide through disillusionment or temporary insanity, or through poverty and general hardship during the post war &nbsp;'Depression' are another group of forgotten war casualties.
