St Anacletus Parish Soldiers MemorialPrint Page
The honour roll commemorates those from the parish who served in World War One.
The honour roll is framed around an alcove in which sits a statue of St Michael the Archangel. It was a gift of Mrs Callary while the statue of St Michael was a gift of the congregation.
The memorial was unveiled on the 5th May 1918 by the Right Reverend Dr Norton, Bishop of Port Augusta. Mrs M. M. Callary was the donor of the soldiers memorial, and the accompanying statue and the inscribed brass plaques were a gift from the congregation. The frame is constructed of solid blackwood, artistically carved, surmounted by a Gothic arch with side panels. The total cost of the memorial including the statue is about £65.
