In the First World War many businesses not only actively encouraged their employees to serve their country but proudly celebrated those who did. The Bank of New South Wales produced a presentation bound book to celebrate the lives of the 793 men, 42% of the bank’s staff of 1800, who enlisted in the armed forces of Australia, New Zealand and Great Britain.
These men came from the bank’s head office in Sydney and their branch offices in every Australian state, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea and Fiji as well as the London office. They represented almost all ranks and commissions, from private to Lieutenant Colonel.
This is a particularly rich genealogical source containing as it does photographs of many of the men.
