EDWARDSTOWN WW1 MEMORIAL BOARD -

Edwardstown and surrounding areas Memorial Board 

Update - February 2020

Last year 2019 when the new sports oval, and buildings were completed, the Honour Board was moved to the upper floor of the main building.   It can be seen most days and nights when the centre is open.

The large and beautifully carved board is at Warradale Army Barracks, and later this year, there will be a time when descendants and other interested parties can attend and see this board for the first time in decades. Open day at Warradale Army Barracks.   For the time being the board will stay where is is now - it is well looked after and safe and has been since 1986.
If at any time there is a specific need to visit the memorial board, it probably could be accommodated.




Most of the above named  men  came from Edwardstown, South Plympton, Vermont, Forbes, Ascot Park  and other suburbs around, which are now part of Edwardstown or Mitcham council area.   

A list of all the surnames on the board will be added very soon.  Stories and a bit of history are being written up in another of my posts.
