Jandakot Agricultural District Roll of HonourPrint Page Print this page

The wooden honour roll, with copper inlay with individual name plates, commemorates those from the district who served in World War One.

"Returned Soldier," Fremantle, writes: -''I have noticed several letters in paper regarding the splendid way in which some towns have responded to their country's call. I would like the public to know that some of the outlying districts have also done well. I should like to point out that Jandakot and Bibra Lake are well represented at the front, having sent over 100 men to the A.I.F. I think that if every district had done as well we would soon be able to welcome back the gallant 5,000 Anzacs. At the present time one cannot find five fit and single men in the places I have mentioned. The roll of honour at Jandakot was unveiled some time ago and there were over seventy names on it."
The West Australian (Perth), 18th June 1917.
