The wooden honour roll commemorates those connected with St Paul`s Church Wollongbar who served in Wold War One and World War Two.
 
St. Paul's Church of England, Wollongbar, was filled on Anzac Day for the unveiling and dedication of an honour roll containing the names of those members who enlisted and served in the two world wars. In all, 54 names were inscribed. The board, of locally grown cedar, was made by Mr. John Rishworth, and the lettering was done by Mr. Ted Nerney. Mrs. Costello Snr., the oldest member of the church, unveiled the roll and the Rev. J. V. J. Robinson, Rector of Lismore, and a former Rector of Alstonville, performed the dedication ceremony. The service was conducted by the Rector of Alstonville, Rev. E. Williams.
Northern Star (Lismore, NSW), 2 May 1952.

Note: The church was renamed St Peter and St Paul's Anglican Church after the St Paul's Anglican Church at Wollongbar closed, and the congregation joined with St Peter's.
