The Malton and Norton Rotary Club Jubilee Year
War Memorial Project and CWG details of the fallen.
The restoration of the Malton War Memorial (1914 - 1919) has been chosen by the M & N Rotary club as a project for the Jubilee Year of 2012. It is hoped that both civic, business and members of the Malton and Norton community will help in the restoration of the structure. Outline plans have been submitted to the local council.
As part of the project, the names of the fallen on the memorial have been recorded and their details traced on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission web site. There are over one hundred names in all and these will appear below together with a copy of the CWG certificate.
If you wish to be involved in the project or comment on details of the fallen please contact Colin Jennings at <rincewinde@which.net>
