Jacksdale Memorial Soldier Statue Returns
« on: Saturday 18 April 09 19:30 BST (UK) »
Dear All

Just to let those who may have relatives named on the Jacksdale, Notts village War Memorial that a very special day is planned on Sunday 14th June 2009.

This is to celebrate the return of the statue of a soldier which used to grace the top of the memorial.  A new soldier is currently being carved in Portland Stone and on Sunday 14th June 2009 we will be celebrating his return.

Please see our village community website for full details of the day and photographs of the new soldier in the making.

As well as a parade, concert, craft fair, and concert, there will also be a 1940s Dance and display of photographs and information about those named on the memorial.

If you have any information about the Jacksdale or Westwood, Notts or Ironville, Derbyshire servicemen we would be pleased to hear from you.
