Adam,

I think your Ayrshire list needs looked at again. From a brief glance I can see Dalry, Darvel, Stewarton and Fenwick all on the forum.

I looked because I noticed Darvel and I remembered adding my photos to the post.

Is this the list of memorials not linked in the general post?


David

Thanks I've updated Ayrshire's list with these four and sorted Barrhead out on the Glasgow & Renfrewshire as well.

I'll double check Ayrshire again tonight. I was using the main lists we have linked as a basis but then checking what has been posted as well.

I will have a look at the Fife list tomorrow. This is one place where there seems to be stacks of memorials outwith the parish 'remit' i.e, for mining villages and particular 'areas'.

Thanks for looking through the Dundee & Angus list. This means it is now up to 79% with 50 out of 63 memorials on the forum although some of the 63 are only possibles.

You hit the nail on the head. Local knowledge is needed here. The same memorial can be known by its location or its parish. I’ve tried to identify as many as I can but I don’t know Fife at all.

You’ve done a great job finding some duplicates and Fife is now at 76% with another 5 memorials identified and possibly not civic ones which would take it up to 80%.. What we’ve got to watch for though is that some parishes have more than one memorial e.g. Farr in Sutherland has five civic memorials, so we can’t just rule a location out just because there is already a memorial within its parish.

Also for some mining communities there didn’t seem to be the same need to erect memorials as in other communities because they had already experienced sudden large scale loss of their menfolk with pit disasters. It may be that Fife with a lot of mining communities does have places without memorials.

For those interested here are the latest stats. I’ve revised them slightly with more detail for some areas like Highland and Argyll & Bute. As you can see from the last list most areas have less than a dozen memorials to be recorded so I’m hoping we’ll get these areas up to 100% soon.
