The men and woman listed on Golspie War Memorial
Our Book "Golspie Remembers 1914-1918" is now available to buy for £6. This has been a long and very rewarding process undertaken over the past five or more years and we hope we have "remembered" those from our village who never returned from the First Wold War. To order the book, see the link at the bottom of this page.
Thanks are due to many people, especially to the late Johnnie (Christie) for his invaluable help, to the family members and local ex-service men who attended our ceremonies, to Patrick Marriott for his diligent research on the military aspects and to Tim Griffiths for his patience in putting the layout and look of the book together.
To purchase a copy of the book, please see the link below or you can purchase one from Lindsay & Co. Main Street, Golspie.
We also have information and photos on our WW1 memorial ceremonies at Golspie War Memorial Facebook page.
A video is available of our Exhibition commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the start of WW1 and is available here.
One of our members has visited several of the War Graves sites of France and Belgium. Some photographs are available below:
Arras & Fabourg D'Amiens, France
Feuchy Chapel British Cemetery, Wancourt, France
Mailly-Wood British Cemetery, Mailly-Maillet, France
The Commonwealth War Graves Commission has kindly given permission for the information contained on its web site to be used for this project. The information relating to each of the war dead together with the maintenance of the war graves is a monumental achievement for the Commission and by no means covers all the work performed by it. A debt of honour is indeed owed to the Commission itself.
