Have you missed a panel of names? The following appear on the Fordoun Hall but not here;
John Brown
Henry Gammell
A Gordon Henderson
Alex J F Duncan
Douglas A Simpson
Robert D Chrystal
George Blackhall
James Gerrard
David M Smith
Edwin MacDoanld
George C Chalmers
John Davidson
Arthur B Hendry
Robert Walker
The WW2 names have been inscribed above, I assume because the four sides were taken up |
These names are on the memorial, i think maybe a side panel. David M Smith and Douglas Smith are brother of my great grandfather.
There is also a memorial in the Parish Church with these names on it i believe.
