The honour roll commemorates those from Longley Ward who served in World War One.  It lists 67 names.

A meeting of the Kingborough Council was held at the Council chambers, Kingston, yesterday. The Warden said a roll of honour was to be unveiled on Saturday at Sandfly, containing the names of nearly sixty men who had enlisted from the Longley ward, and he thought it was very creditable for that number to have gone from such a small place.
The Mercury (Hobart), 9th July 1918.

Note: The “Tasmanian War Memorials Data Base”, compiled by Fred Thornett which is located at the State Library of Tasmania, contains a comprehensive listing of the names on this honour roll.
