Cracow Roll of HonourPrint Page
The wooden honour roll with carved columns and borders containing names in gold lettering commemorates those who served in World War Two.
On March 4 1944, an honour board was unveiled in the Oddfellows Hall in Cracow. The plan of having an honour board originated with the two lodges MUUIOOF and the RAOB, Mr E.E. Sam explained at the unveiling. The lodges presented the board to the RSSAILA which in turn has presented it to the citizens of Cracow. There are 114 names on the board and more are to be added. Mr R. Roberts on behalf of the residents thanked the donors for their kindly thought.
