A free space page to record the recipients of the Victoria Cross who came from Wales or were considered to be Welsh by parentage.

Tasks to be done:

• Profile created and bio written for each recipient (including parents/siblings/spouse/children)
• Connect each recipient to the tree

• Add to VC category & Welsh VCs category (Category:Victoria Cross, Wales & Category:Victoria Cross each surrounded by double square brackets)
