Interned - Torrens Island Database

This database lists men interned from South Australia during the First World War. It includes those interned on Torrens Island, as well as those interned in New South Wales after the internment camp on Torrens Island was closed in mid-August 1915. The data is drawn from two sources held in National Archives of Australia:

A367 C18000 Part 1, War Internees and Deportees 1914–1919.
D2286, Nominal roll of prisoners of war interned at Torrens Island concentration camp 1915.

The data from these two sources is not always consistent, particularly in the way names are recorded. While we have attempted to match up names as far as possible, we are aware that the data set remains incomplete and our conclusions may not be accurate.

‘Liverpool’ indicates that the person referred to was interned at Holsworthy camp at Liverpool, New South Wales.
