I have just put on-line an extract of the World War II Rolls of Honour for the whole of the Isle of Lewis. It lists all those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the service of King and Country between 1939 and 1945. I can add that the Stornoway Roll of Honour was compiled because the listings on the War Memorial, discussed in this thread, were found to be woefully incomplete.
One note: I was unable to find a Roll of Honour for the village of Tong.
