Notes:

1. “This appears to be a reprint of an earlier work. It is not know at time of writing (17th July 2002) when this was put in place, or when the lists were typed – the printing suggests that these may have been word processed and this booklet may have been a local history project, or something similar” John & Mavis Dixon.

2. Among those helping with compiling the book was Syd Guy.

3. The list was open for inspection in August 1990 so that people could ensure that all names were included.

4. The faculty for the Memorial Case to house the Book of Remembrance is dated 16 November 1992.
