A Glebe Society member, Rod Holtham, has authored a booklet called Glebe and the Great War which is now available at the Glebe Library. The booklet contains an extensive list of those from Glebe who served in WWI, complete with their regimental numbers, so those interested can follow up the full details through the National Archives database or the Australian War Memorial website.
