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.

Shire of Normanby Honour RollPrint Page 
The wooden honour roll commemorates those from the Shire of Normanby who served in World War One.
The honour roll was unveiled in the School of Arts on the 26th August 1916 by Mr J. Story, Under Secretary for Public Instruction on the 26th August 1916. In unveiling the honour board which contains the names of 77 volunteers from the Normanby Shire area, Mr Story gave a stirring patriotic address. He spoke of the splendid gallantry of the ANZACs in Egypt, he spoke of the fine work of Major-General H.G.Chauvel whose brother Lieutenant J Allan Chauvel, occupied a seat on the platform.
The Brisbane Courier (Qld), 30th August 1916.
