Many of the Civic ones are listed on Kirkwall’s Royal British Legion website which has transcriptions and information on some of the men and women listed. You can find the link to that site in the LINKS section of this forum. As before let me know of additions and omissions and I will update the list. When I have a chance I will post links to memorials on this forum.
