- John (Jackie) Duddy. Shot in the chest in the car park of Rossville flats. Four witnesses stated Duddy was unarmed and running away from the paratroopers when he was killed. Three of them saw a soldier take deliberate aim at the youth as he ran. He is the uncle of the Irish boxer John Duddy.
- Patrick Joseph Doherty. Shot from behind while attempting to crawl to safety in the forecourt of Rossville flats. Doherty was the subject of a series of photographs, taken before and after he died by French journalist Gilles Peress. Despite testimony from "Soldier F" that he had fired at a man holding and firing a pistol, Widgery acknowledged that the photographs showed Doherty was unarmed, and that forensic tests on his hands for gunshot residue proved negative.
- Bernard McGuigan. Shot in the back of the head when he went to help Patrick Doherty. He had been waving a white handkerchief at the soldiers to indicate his peaceful intentions.
- Hugh Pius Gilmour. Shot through his right elbow, the bullet then entering his chest as he ran from the paratroopers on Rossville Street. Widgery acknowledged that a photograph taken seconds after Gilmour was hit corroborated witness reports that he was unarmed, and that tests for gunshot residue were negative.
- Kevin McElhinney. Shot from behind while attempting to crawl to safety at the front entrance of the Rossville Flats. Two witnesses stated McElhinney was unarmed.
- Michael Gerald Kelly. Shot in the stomach while standing near the rubble barricade in front of Rossville Flats. Widgery accepted that Kelly was unarmed.
- John Pius Young. Shot in the head while standing at the rubble barricade. Two witnesses stated Young was unarmed.
- William Noel Nash. Shot in the chest near the barricade. Witnesses stated Nash was unarmed and going to the aid of another when killed.
- Michael M. McDaid. Shot in the face at the barricade as he was walking away from the paratroopers. The trajectory of the bullet indicated he could have been killed by soldiers positioned on the Derry Walls.
- James Joseph Wray. Wounded then shot again at close range while lying on the ground. Witnesses who were not called to the Widgery Tribunal stated that Wray was calling out that he could not move his legs before he was shot the second time.
- Gerald Donaghey. Shot in the stomach while attempting to run to safety between Glenfada Park and Abbey Park. Donaghey was brought to a nearby house by bystanders where he was examined by a doctor. His pockets were turned out in an effort to identify him. A later police photograph of Donaghey's corpse showed nail bombs in his pockets. Neither those who searched his pockets in the house nor the British army medical officer (Soldier 138) who pronounced him dead shortly afterwards say they saw any bombs. Donaghey had been a member of Fianna Éireann, an IRA-linked Republican youth movement. Paddy Ward, a police informer who gave evidence at the Saville Inquiry, claimed that he had given two nail bombs to Donaghey several hours before he was shot dead.
- Gerard (James) McKinney. Shot just after Gerald Donaghey. Witnesses stated that McKinney had been running behind Donaghey, and he stopped and held up his arms, shouting "Don't shoot! Don't shoot!", when he saw Donaghey fall. He was then shot in the chest.
- William Anthony McKinney. Shot from behind as he attempted to aid Gerald McKinney (no relation). He had left cover to try to help Gerald.
- John Johnston. Shot in the leg and left shoulder on William Street 15 minutes before the rest of the shooting started. Johnston was not on the march, but on his way to visit a friend in Glenfada Park. He died 4½ months later; his death has been attributed to the injuries he received on the day. He was the only one not to die immediately or soon after being shot.

Tom Jobim nasceu há 90 anos!
O Boto - Tom Jobim
Na praia de fora tem o mar
Um bôto casado com sereia
Navega num rio pelo mar
O corpo de um bicho deu na praia
E a alma perdida quer voltar
Caranguejo conversa com arraia
Marcando a viagem pelo ar
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Já tô com vontade de ir por aí
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Com vontade de ir por aí
Na ilha deserta o sol desmaia
Do alto do morro vê-se o mar
Papagaio discute com jandaia
Se o homem foi feito pra voar
Cristina, Cristina
Cristina, Cristina
Desperta, desperta
Desperta, desperta
Vem cá
Ah - ah
Inhambu cantou lá na floresta
E o velho jereba fêz-se ao ar
Sapo querendo entrar na festa
Viola pesada pra voar
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Já tô com vontade de ir por aí
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Com vontade de ir por aí
Camiranga urubu mestre do vento
Urubu caçador mestre do ar
Urutau cantando num lamento
Pra lua redonda navegar
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ainda ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Já tô com vontade de ir por aí
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Ontem vim de lá do Pilar
Com vontade de ir por aí
Ah - ah
Na enseada negra vista em sonho
Dorme um veleiro sobre o mar
No espelho das aguas refletido
Navega um veleiro pelo ar
