Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Alexandra Roll of HonourPrint Page 
The plaque which was erected by the residents of the Shire of Alexandra commemorates those who served in the South African (Boer) War.
The ceremony of unveiling the " Roll of Honor" and Queen Victoria tablets in the shire hall, on June 14, promises to be worthy of the occasion. The council have applied for, and no doubt will be granted, a public holiday, and if the public will join with their usual enthusiasm in helping the committee to make the day a success, we feel sure that the display will be worthy of the occasion and of Alexandra.
Alexandra and Yea Standard, Gobur, Thornton and Acheron Express (Vic), 2 June 1905.
