Oops Embarassed

Schoolboy error there, should have done a check using the search function and not just relied on scanning the index.

Cheers

Adam

Confirmation of the Lenzie memorial although it looks like there will be no names unfortunately

From 'The Scotsman' - Monday, 11th April 1921, page 5

LENZIE

The bronze tablet erected by the ex-service men of Lenzie in the Public Hall in memory of their comrades who fell in the war was unveiled yesterday afternoon by Colonel Denny. No roll of honour is inscribed upon the tablet, but a parchment scroll containing 74 names of fallen comrades was placed in a glass cylinder by the Colonel, and deposited in a cavity in the tablet.

A Dumbarton Church memorial from 1921. This brass plaque may not be in its original location. The church will have changed its name in 1929 anyway.

The Scotsman - Monday, 11th April 1921, page 5

Dumbarton
There was unveiled in the High Street U.F. Church, Dumbarton, yesterday a memorial brass containing 11 names of members of the congregation who fell during the war. The tablet was unveiled by Mrs James Craig, of Linwood, Dumbarton.
