Hi Bren,
Thanks for posting the photo of the war memorial plaque at Govan Church. I hadn't seen that before and am delighted that both Armit brothers are recorded on the plaque. I could never understand why only David was on the Cambusnethan memorial and not Tom as that was their home town. In 1911 Tom was living and working in Govan where his sister was living so that was the area in which he enlisted. I'm glad his war effort was acknowledged within one district if not the other.
Regards, Sage.
