Souvenir War Memorial Holyrood Barnsley
« on: Saturday 15 September 12 17:47 BST (UK) »
Among some old papers I came across a Souvenir War Memorial leaflet printed 1946 when the Bishop of Leeds blessed the memorial at Holy Rood Church, Barnsley.  There are 34 names of the dead listed.  I know it's a long shot, but if you had a relative killed in WW2 and a member of Holy Rood Church named in the folder then I am delighted to send it to you.
Names - Johnson, Kenny, Lee, Sheridan, Lynch, Hanson, Taylor, Cunningham, Hyslop, Richardson, Carroll, Wilcock, Boylan, Regan, McGrath, Meade, Hardware, Levi, Foy, Duncan, Morgan, Hymes, Regan, Newton, Durnan, Young,  Galvin, Miller, Richardson, Martin, McNicholas, Lavan, Carnevalli, Lawless,

Hello, my name is David McNicholas and my uncle Thomas McNicholas is named on the war memorial from Holyrood. If you still have the document I would really be pleased to receive it . Please let me know as I would appreciate it so much. 

Thank you

David

I'll be delighted to send it!  I see Thomas McNicholas is listed as April 1945.  You need to do another two postings before you can send me a PM with your address.  Acknowledging this will be one.
