LEST WE FORGET
At the recent RSL Supper Dance to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the end of World War 1 and the signing of the Armistice, the Inverleigh Historical Society presented a slide show of locals who made the ultimate sacrifice. The photos were very well received and it was a moving tribute to these men pictured and named below. To honour them we include below those that are known from the district from local honour boards etc. If you have more information from your family, please forward details to the Inverleigh Historial Society as per details on page 4.
