gnr.ktrha Posted 1 September , 2006 Share Posted 1 September , 2006 Hello, I have an old picture postcard of the memorial. I can send you a copy if you would like. i think you can make out some of the names on it. Regards, Stewart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhubthaigh Posted 2 September , 2006 Author Share Posted 2 September , 2006 Dan & Stewart, Many thanks for your posts and offers of assistance, always appreciated. Dan can I defer to you initially. If anyone you know can take a photo of the Memorial and rolls that would be great. If not I'll have to think about making a trip up myself at some point. Cheers again. regards, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiemcginlay Posted 3 September , 2006 Share Posted 3 September , 2006 Hello Mark, attached is a photo of the Aberfeldy memorial taken in 1992. I also have the full lists of names and will send them to you direct. Cheers. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digger Posted 3 September , 2006 Share Posted 3 September , 2006 I hope you don't mind me jumping in on this topic. Aberfeldy Memorial is on the Roll of Honour site, but without a list of names. http://www.roll-of-honour.com/Perthshire/Aberfeldy.html Help with transcribing would be great, but if not possible I would appreciate it if you could pm me with the list and I am happy to take on the task. Always looking to avoid the housework Digger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digger Posted 3 September , 2006 Share Posted 3 September , 2006 I forgot to say that on the Roll of Honour Home page there is a word template available if anyone wants to help with transcribing memorials. Martin Edwards who started the site has done a wonderful job but obviously cannot do everything. http://www.roll-of-honour.com/ Digger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhubthaigh Posted 4 September , 2006 Author Share Posted 4 September , 2006 Hello, Just wanted to respond about the Roll of Honour input. It looks a fine idea and one I will look at. I had a quick glance but couldn't download the template. I seem to have loads of enquiry going on at the minute with various things so bear with me. Thanks for putting forward the idea though. regards, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KF Kelly Posted 8 September , 2006 Share Posted 8 September , 2006 I hope to be visiting Aberfeldy next month. If you still want pictures of the actual name plates, I'll try to get them for you. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbriscoe Posted 24 March , 2019 Share Posted 24 March , 2019 Full set of images on FLICKR Quite interesting to read how the council estimated the cost at £350 so were not happy when over £1000 was quoted, they suggested building out of rubble and concrete!
