Re: War Memorials

I know of the Oswaldtwistle project, I have 422 names and 165 pictures in my Ossy file for World War I. I doubt if people of other towns would want their relatives on other War Memorials.
Some time ago someone was agitating about Gt Harwoods War Memorial, some of the metal letters are missing, but the local Tzar started moaning about money.

I do know that plans are underway for Oswaldtwistle's war memorial to include the names of those members of the armed services killed in World War II, Korea, and all subsequent wars, thanks to Roy and Jean Lockwood.

Perhaps those earlier omissions and mistakes could also be rectified at the same time?
