Private Francis JubbPrint Page
The light commemorates Private Francis Alan Jubb who was killed in action in Papua in January 1943 during World War Two.
The Warden (Cr. C. R. Morris) presided over a well-attended public meeting on Monday evening to discuss the installation of street lights at West Kentish and Roland, some of which would be to perpetuate the memory of deceased servicemen from those districts. These special lights would be marked to indicate the name of the soldier represented, and would probably be of a distinctive kind. The meeting unanimously decided to ask the council to proceed with the scheme, the upkeep of five lights in each centre to be provided by a lighting rate to be levied for the purpose.
Advocate (Burnie, Tas.), 17 January 1946.
