The Fallen of Everton – Private Don Sloan

A great deal of research has been carried out by a number of members since the founding of the society, into players on Everton FC books who fell in both wars. This research has also been extended to include the Everton clubs of Chile and New Zealand.

A series of short biographical films about the players is in production, the first of which is a biography of goalkeeper Don Sloan, one of four brothers, none of whom returned home after the First World War.

Presented by Tony Wainwright BEM, a member of the society; a notable expert on the history of the Great War, who also writes and maintains the Liverpool Pals website – as well as being part of the group responsible for the installation of a permanent memorial to the Pals in the city.
